Thiago Silva confirms Chelsea's leave with an emotional message to fans.
Thiago Silva has declared, with tears in his eyes, that he will leave Chelsea in the summer, bringing his four-year spell at Stamford Bridge to an end.South American joined the Blues in 2020.
Has won the Champions League while in England. Expected to return home at 39 years of age.
After his contract with Paris Saint-Germain expired, the talented Brazilian defender joined the Blues as a free agent in 2020. He has been working on short-term contracts since then, but there will be no extension in 2024.
Silva, 39, is anticipated to return home after previously indicating that he wants to complete his career at Fluminense, where it all began. That decision will be made after creating many unforgettable memories in west London, with the South American giving an emotional message to Chelsea fans.
Silva stated on the club's official website: "Chelsea means a lot to me. I came here with the aim of remaining for a year, but it ended up being four years. Not only for me, but for my entire family. My boys play for Chelsea, therefore I'm really proud to be a part of the Chelsea family - literally because my sons are here. I hope they can continue their careers at this successful club, which many players want to be a part of. I believe I gave my all to all I accomplished here during the past four years. Unfortunately, everything has a beginning, middle, and end. That does not imply that this is the end.
I hope to keep the door open so that I can return in the near future, but in a different job here. But it's an indescribable love. I can just say "thank you."
"Obviously, when I first started here, it was during the pandemic, so there were no fans in the stadium." But it became something very precious to me thanks to social media, and as the people returned to the stadium and life resumed normalcy, I began to feel a lot of affection and admiration for my narrative and my beginning here. Saying goodbye is difficult enough under normal circumstances, but when there is mutual love, it becomes even more difficult. But one Blue is always a Blue. The manner in which I arrived at the club with the help of the club.
I arrived at the club as a leader, despite the fact that I did not feel like one. It's always difficult to integrate, but I gradually became a member of the group, and (Frank) Lampard had a significant role in this. I am thankful to him for it. [It was] obviously a dream. I never imagined I'd be able to achieve such greatness and win one of the top professional trophies, the Champions League, at one of the world's most prestigious teams. Goodbyes are for people who depart and do not return. I plan on returning one day..."

Deportivo de A Coruña’s return to La Liga is one of the most emotional promotion stories in Spanish football. The Galician club sealed its comeback with a 2–0 victory over Real Valladolid on 25 May 2026, securing second place in Segunda División and ending an eight-year absence from the top flight. The result brought an iconic club back to the stage where it once challenged the strongest teams in Europe, but the celebration represented much more than a promotion. It marked the end of a long period of decline, disappointment and rebuilding. For Deportivo supporters, this moment has been years in the making. The club that once competed regularly in the Champions League had fallen as low as Spain’s third tier, forcing its fans to watch their team move further away from the level that had defined its greatest era. The journey back was not quick, glamorous or guaranteed. It required patience, financial discipline, emotional loyalty and a willingness to keep believing when the future appeare...

Savinho’s reported move from Manchester City to Tottenham represents far more than an expensive attacking transfer. Spurs are believed to have agreed a deal worth an initial £75 million, with a further £10 million in performance-related bonuses, taking the potential package to £85 million. The 22-year-old Brazilian winger is arriving as one of the central pieces of Roberto De Zerbi’s rebuild, a project designed to give Tottenham more creativity, unpredictability and attacking confidence after a difficult Premier League campaign. De Zerbi has made it clear that Tottenham need important players who can add genuine quality rather than simply increase the size of the squad. Savinho fits that description because he offers qualities that cannot be easily coached into an average winger. He can carry the ball at speed, beat defenders in one-versus-one situations, operate on either flank and create opportunities from positions that are difficult to defend. His arrival could transform Tottenham’...
