Thiago Silva has an offer on the table from Fiorentina as well. He has, however, rebuffed reports that he has signed a deal with them. He said:
“Now I have to look for a new team. Fiorentina? Reports of an agreement are not true. My agent is talking to them and other clubs but nothing is signed yet. Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow I will have to look at the offers and make the best decision for me and my family.”
Apart from Thiago Silva, Chelsea are also targeting Malang Sarr on a free transfer.
