Isago Silva is following in the footsteps of his father Thiago, who spent four years at Stamford Bridge

Thiago Silva, the former Chelsea star, has responded to the announcement that his eldest son, Isago, is following in his footsteps by signing his first professional contract with the Blues. The 41-year-old Brazilian defender, who made 155 appearances for Chelsea between 2020 and 2024, currently plays for Fluminense back in his homeland.

Despite his contract set to expire in June 2026, there's no hint of Thiago hanging up his boots just yet. However, his 17-year-old son Isago is just beginning his journey, having inked his first professional deal with Chelsea.

Isago took to Instagram to share his excitement, writing: "Proud to sign my first pro deal with Chelsea. Hungry for more."
