Chelsea are considering extending their contract with Thiago Silva, which they signed last summer. It was a decision made after seeing Thiago Silva nine games.

Thiago Silva departs with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) after his contract expired last season. Thiago Silva later became a free and he transferred to Chelsea in August on a one-year contract. He scored one goal in nine games, including one in five Premier League games.

At the beginning of the season, his uneasy defense raised concerns and was criticized. However, with the support of Frank Lampard, Thiago Silva found stability and adjusted to the new stage.

Chelsea signed Thiago Silva because they wanted an experience defender who can control the defense like 'Legend' John Terry. As Chelsea consisted of relatively young players, the team needed the backing of experienced players.

Chelsea and coach Lampard were convinced by the nine games Thiago Silva played. It's not easy to find a good defender like Thiago Silva. Therefore, Chelsea hastily decided to extend the contract with Thiago Silva by one more year until 2022.

For Thiago Silva, Chelsea's move is welcome. For him, if he extends his contract, he will have a more stable playing time. In particular, Chelsea dont offer player of that age a contract because he is entering his late 30s.

If Chelsea offers Thiago Silva a new contract I believe he will gladly accept it because he is happy with Chelsea.
