Silva, who announced his upcoming exit in a heartfelt video released a few weeks ago, will leave a significant void in Chelsea's backline. The 39-year-old Brazilian has been a defensive cornerstone, contributing to their UEFA Champions League triumph and making 154 appearances.

However, Chelsea will face stiff competition for Varane, with Juventus and Al-Nassr also keen on securing the former Real Madrid star.
