Thiago Silva on his way out? Chelsea defender confirms he has made a decision on his future after being left in tears by FA Cup defeat by Man City

Silva, 39, spoke openly following the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/video-noni-madueke-laughing-jack-grealish-exact-moment-thiago-silva-tears-fa-cup-defeat-chelsea-fans-outraged/blta021bfa82d81c261" target="_blank">1-0 loss to Pep Guardiola's </a>side in the FA Cup semi-final on Saturday evening. The former AC Milan and Paris Saint Germain defender revealed he has made a decision regarding his future, while refusing to comment on it after the loss.

WHAT HAPPENED?

"You are going to know in the coming days," Silva said shortly after bursting into tears at Wembley Stadium. "I don't want to say anything now after a defeat. I'm sad about the result, but sooner or later the news will come out. I do have a decision made in my mind, but it's not the moment to share it."It's not an individual sport, but my four years here were very good. Not that I didn't believe in myself, but with my age and the intensity of this league, it's rare to see players in a high level at 39."I don't like to talk about me, but you can see this. In the semi-final I was ready to play the extra-time! I can see I still have some years in me to keep enjoying football."

WHAT SILVA SAID

Silva's contract at Stamford Bridge is set to expire this summer and after receiving a one-year extension at the end of last season, it appears unlikely that this will happen again.Speaking earlier in the campaign about Silva's future, Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino said: "It's a thing that, at the moment, we are not talking about the future of the player in the squad. We are competing and that is a decision for sure the club needs to ask and we need to talk and agree the future of the squad at the end of the season. Of course, he is one of the players we need to discuss. At the moment, so far, there is nothing. At the moment, we didn't discuss."

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Following the loss to City, Silva and his team-mates face a quick turnaround before facing title contenders Arsenal on Tuesday evening. Chelsea currently sit in ninth place within the top flight of English football but could jump to seventh if results go their way in the coming days.
