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..."

Fiorentina midfielder Edoardo Bove collapsed during a Serie A match.

Edoardo Bove, a Fiorentina midfielder, slumped on the pitch during his team's Serie A match against Inter Milan on Sunday. Bove's teammates hastily shouted for medical assistance and surrounded the 22-year-old before doctors treated him and quickly transferred him to a nearby ambulance on the side of the pitch. The event occurred in the 16th minute of the match, which was momentarily suspended at 0-0 and then abandoned with plans to reschedule later in the season. According to Sky Sport Italia, Bove was rushed to the Careggi Hospital near Fiorentina's Stadio Artemio Franchi. The Italian broadcaster later stated that Bove was breathing and beating on his own. In the minutes following Bove's fall, his teammates and opponents were visibly stunned and sad, with some in tears. In April, Roma defender Evan Ndicka collapsed with a hand on his chest, and Piermario Morosini died after heart arrest during a Serie B match 12 years ago. Inter and Fiorentina are both near the ...

Barcelona dealt enormous injury blow ahead of Inter and Real Madrid clashes.

In a heartbreaking evening, Barcelona came back from two goals down against Inter in the Champions League semi-final first leg. The Blaugrana will believe they should have won the game after losing twice from set pieces. Now they're calculating the expense. After only 42 minutes, French defender Jules Kounde collapsed on the pitch, clutching the back of his calf. He had to be replaced by Eric Garcia, who performed admirably as a right-back out of position. Kounde's injury has raised concerns ahead of a number of critical games. Kounde will be tested on Thursday, but it appears that he has a muscle problem, most likely more serious than a grade tear. According to Sport, Kounde will miss their La Liga match against Real Valladolid, their Champions League return leg in Milan against Inter, and their decisive Clasico against Real Madrid the following weekend. Kounde was seen limping as he exited the stadium, telling the cameras, 'We'll see tomorrow'.
