Chelsea have been hailed for bringing world class Brazilian to Stamford Bridge
Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has praised Chelsea for signing Thiago Silva this summer transfer window
Silva, 35, joined us on a free transfer last week after ending his eight-year spell at French giants PSG, despite he fact that the leader had bigger offers from other clubs.
The Brazilian won seven Ligue 1 titles while at PSG and helped the club reach last season’s Champions League final, where they suffered a narrow defeat to Bayern Munich, And after his arrival, Hasselbaink expects Silva to thrive at Stamford Bridge and says he will be a positive role model for the clubs youngsters, he told GentingBet.
“Thiago Silva will bring with him a wealth of experience and know-how. I understand the signing 100 per cent,”
“Obviously, French football is also different than English football which is more demanding so he will have to look after his body especially as they are involved in the Champions League as well.
“But he is a great addition. Chelsea have a lot of young players and he will be there to help them.
“Chelsea have Jorginho who has done that job really, really well. If you look at him during the games when he’s playing, he speaks a lot to the young players.
“I think Thiago Silva will be the same. He’s somebody that that the young players can look up to because he’s won a lot.
“He’s played a lot for Brazil – he’s been there and done it. He’s also a very calm person who will help the young players relax.”
GREAT SIGNING!
