Chelsea defender Thiago Silva has reportedly been in contact with Brazil and former Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) teammate Neymar over a potential move to west London this summer, but Todd Boehly would prefer to sign Barcelona winger Ousmane Dembele.
Le Parisien, via GFFN, report that Neymar’s departure from PSG this summer now appears to be a given, with the Brazilian no longer comfortable at the club and the Ligue 1 Champions open to selling him at the right price.
The report adds that Neymar is said to be a poor influence on other players in terms of behaviour, while the players closest to him in the dressing room, Angel Di Maria and Leandro Paredes, have left or are on their way out of the club.
