Chelsea have completed the signing of Brazil defender Thiago Silva.

Chelsea have finally secured the services of Brazil centre-back Thiago Silva.

The West London club handed the 35-year-old a one-year contract with the option of a further 12 months after his contract with PSG expired.

Silva, who spent eight years at the Parc Des Princes after joining from Serie A club AC Milan in 2012, is Frank Lampard's sixth signing of the summer following the arrivals of Hakim Ziyech, Timo Werner, Ben Chilwell, Malang Sarr, and Xavier Mbuyamba.

"I am so happy to be joining Chelsea," Silva, 35, said.

"I am delighted to be a part of Frank Lampard's exciting squad for next season and I'm here to challenge for honours.

"See you soon Chelsea fans, I look forward to playing at Stamford Bridge very soon."
