Thiago Silva could help Chelsea finally salvage their failed pursuit of Paris Saint-Germain centre-half Marquinhos ahead of next season.
Thomas Tuchel's side was heavily linked with the 27-year-old in the summer transfer window as the west Londoners looked to complete a triple raid of Les Parc des Princes.
The Blues boss was keen to lure £72 million-valued Marquinhos to Stamford Bridge, so Marina Granovskaia joined the race to win the Brazil international's signature, according to a report by the Mirror in July.
