Premier League outfit, Chelsea have continue their good form in the transfer window as they announce the signing of Thiago Silva on free transfer.
Chelsea some minutes ago confirmed signing the veteran centre-back who left Paris Saint-Germain after his contract expired.
Silva’s move to Stamford Bridge comes after his eight-year PSG stay came to an end following the club’s loss to Bayern Munich in the Champions League final.
The 35-year-old, who served as captain in that defeat, departs the French side with a joint-record seven Ligue 1 titles as well as five Coupes de la Ligue and five Coupes de
France .
He will now be hoping to cement a place in Chelsea’s backline as he face stiff competition from the likes of Antonio Rudiger, Kurt Zouma and Andreas Christainsen.
Frank Lampard have earlier signed Ben Chilwell from Leicester City as they hope to compete with the likes of Manchester City and Liverpool for the Premier League title.
