Available on the market after not renewing with FC Porto, Thiago Silva is assessing the next step in his career and has already received several approaches. According to Globo Esporte, Fluminense are among the interested clubs and have already contacted the player and his representatives to gauge the possibility of another return this season.
Currently on holiday, the Brazil international has not yet made a final decision about his future. The message conveyed to the clubs that have approached him has always been the same: he is analysing his options and weighing up what would be most beneficial for his career, with retirement not being considered for now.
Fluminense, however, are not alone in the race for the experienced centre-back. Other teams, including some from European football, have also shown interest. The Rio de Janeiro club’s board knows the process is complex and that talks are still at a very early stage.
It should be remembered that Thiago Silva ended his second spell at Fluminense at the end of last year. At the time, the Brazilian club tried to convince him to stay, pointing to their place in the Copa Libertadores group stage and the proximity of the 2026 World Cup, but without success. The main factor behind his departure was the distance from his family, as his wife and children continued living in London while the player was in Brazil. After that spell, he moved to FC Porto and won the league title.
