Subsequently, he joined Paris Saint-Germain three years later and later made his way to Chelsea. Now, after four fruitful years with the London club, Silva is bidding farewell.
During his tenure at Chelsea, which began with a free transfer in August 2020, Silva amassed an impressive array of accolades, including the UEFA Champions League, the FIFA Club World Cup, and the UEFA Super Cup. Additionally, his international achievements include triumphs in the 2013 Confederations Cup and the 2019 Copa America, solidifying his status as a decorated footballer on both club and international levels.
