PSG star Thiago Silva wants Barcelona free transfer to complete ‘dream of playing with Lionel Messi’


PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN could be set for a transfer tussle with Barcelona as reports claim Thiago Silva has his heart set on the Nou Camp.

The PSG captain is out of contract this summer and will be available on a free transfer in June unless the Ligue 1 giants can convince him to stay.

But according to Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo, the Brazilian defender, 35, is desperate to fulfil his dream of playing alongside Lionel Messi.

The report also states Barcelona attempted to sign him back when he played for AC Milan.

However, no concrete offer from the LaLiga title hopefuls is currently on the table.

Silva moved to Paris from Milan in 2012 and has gone on to play over 300 times for the club.

He continues to be a regular for Thomas Tuchel’s side and remains skipper.



But after being so close to joining Barca previously, the veteran has previously gone on record to say he “could not close the door” on them.

He should also have plenty of other options available if he fails to pen an extension at PSG.

Clubs from China and the MLS are also believed to be interested in snapping-up the Samba star.
