THIAGO SILVA NEEDS ‘SUPER FRIEND’ NEYMAR TO JOIN HIM AT CHELSEA OFFER PSG EXIT TALK

Neymar has been linked with a move away from Paris and national teammate Thiago Silva claims Chelsea is a good fit for him.

Thiago Silva has implored his Brazilian team-mate Neymar to join him at Chelsea if he decides to leave Paris Saint-Germain.

There has been recent speculation about Neymar’s future at PSG, with the French club reportedly open to selling him should an acceptable bid come along.

Neymar’s former agent Wagner Ribeiro said last week the 30-year-old wants to remain with PSG, to fulfil his dream of winning the Champions League there.

Chelsea’s 37-year-old defender Thiago Silva, who has played alongside Neymar at international level and at PSG from 2017 to 2020, has urged to join him at Stamford Bridge.

“He has to go to Chelsea,” Silva told Globo about Neymar who is contracted until 2025.

“If he is about to leave, then he must go there. If it happens, then the expectation is the best possible one.

“We don’t even need to talk about Neymar’s ability. Besides that, he is a super friend.

“I hope this happens instead of only being something on the news, but I don’t know anything about it.”

In recent days, Chelsea have been linked with another Brazilian, Leeds United’s Raphinha, but are yet to spend in the transfer market this off-season.

Chelsea had a change of ownership completed in May with a group led by Todd Boehly replacing Roman Abramovich following a long association with the London club.
