PSG defender Thiago Silva has signed for Chelsea on a one-year-deal after passing a medical. Silva became a free agent after his PSG contract expired.
The contract has an option to extend the contract for one more year. Silva spent 8 years at PSG after joining from AC Milan in 2012. Silva is just one of the transfer signings for Chelsea this off season, as Frank Lampard tries to mount a serious challenge domestically and Europe this upcoming season.
Opinion
Silva adds valuable experience to Chelsea, even at 35 years old he still showed he can still cut it at the highest level in the Champions League final. Silva was the reason Robert Lewandowski was quiet in the recently concluded finals. I think this is a great signing for Chelsea which pulls them closer to challenging for the Premier League Title next season.
