A video has gone viral of the youngster’s latest display, in which he appeared to play as a defender just like his dad.

Isago showed great vision and composure while on the ball and even displayed some impressive marking skills.

He also proved to be handy with crosses as he always found his team-mates up front.

Chelsea fans were left in awe and flooded the comments’ section claiming he is already better than some of the senior players, such as Marc Cucurella and Kalidou Koulibaly.

And that one stated: “Already better than Harry Maguire.”

It appears age is indeed just a number in the Silva household as Thiago is also shining bright at centre-back even though he is 38 years old.

The ex-Brazil international has established himself as Chelsea’s rock in defence with a total of 29 appearances across all competitions this season.
