There’s no further information regarding the type of deal, or contract Silva will see from his boyhood club. Chelsea will likely let Silva go, considering his age, but there’s no denying that The Blues got the most out of the defender who’s in the final stages of his career.

There might be an outside chance the Silva will stick another year to prepare for the FIFA World Cup, and manager Thomas Tuchel is a significant fan of the defender, so the London-based club might not have the entire door shut yet.

It will be interesting to see what both Chelsea and Silva decide to do later this summer.
