Thiago Silva reveals he’s had headaches from Premier League aerial battles but hopes for Chelsea stay

The Brazilian has discussed his start to life at Stamford Bridge and is aiming to earn an extension to his 12-month deal at the club

Thiago Silva says his early Premier League appearances have left him with headaches, but he is looking to earn a contract extension at Chelsea.

Silva joined Chelsea on a free transfer in August, having not had his contract extended at Paris Saint-Germain.

The ex-PSG captain is 36 yet has quickly had an impact at Stamford Bridge, avoiding defeat in his first eight games in all competitions and helping the Blues climb to fifth in the Premier League, a competition that has already left an impression on the centre-back.
