Paris Saint-Germain captain Thiago Silva is keen on a move to Chelsea ahead of the 2020-21 season, according to a report.

Paris Saint-Germain captain Thiago Silva is reportedly keen on joining Chelsea this summer.

The 35-year-old is set to become a free agent in the aftermath of the Champions League final, and a recent report claimed that Frank Lampard's side were considering a move for the veteran centre-back.

Fiorentina have also been credited with an interest in the Brazilian, but according to Telefoot Chaine, Silva wants to move to Stamford Bridge ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.

The South American will not make a decision on his future before next week as he is due to lead PSG into Sunday's European Cup final with German champions Bayern Munich.

Chelsea are expected to be in the market for at least one new central defender this summer due to their struggles in that area of the field during the 2019-20 season.

Silva has won seven Ligue 1 titles since joining PSG from AC Milan in July 2012.
