JAKARTA — Thiago Silva invites his compatriot Neymar Jr to join Chelsea. The invitation came amid rumors that Neymar would leave Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).

In recent days, Neymar's future at the Parc des Princes has continued to make headlines. The French giants look set to embark on a new direction focusing on Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi.

"He [Neymar] should join Chelsea," said Thiago as quoted by Spanish media, Marca.

Neymar himself seems to have known that he wanted to be removed from the body of Les Parisiens. This is as news of his displeasure with club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi has been leaked.

However, not many clubs can buy Neymar because of his exorbitant salary. Only a rich club like Chelsea could possibly sign the Brazilian superstar.

Many predictions place the Blues as the next potential destination for the former Barcelona player. For that, Silva hopes that Neymar will accept the offer to move to Stamford Bridge.

"If that happens, it will be for the best. Neymar need not comment. So far, I don't know anything, but I hope it pays off," said Thiago.

Neymar joined PSG from Barcelona in the summer of 2017 for a fee of 222 million euros. He played with Thiago Silva for four seasons before his compatriot moved to London last season.
