Thiago Silva’s son has been spotted in the Instagram comments of reported Chelsea target Erling Haaland.
As reported by Sky Sports, Chelsea are interested in signing Haaland, and have already made an informal offer in their attempts to prise him away from Borussia Dortmund.
Haaland would be a dream acquisition for Thomas Tuchel, who had to tackle the top four run-in and Champions League latter stages without a striker capable of finding the net.
All things considered, he didn’t do too badly, did he?
Still, Tuchel will be intent on hiring a new striker this summer, with Haaland seemingly the player that Chelsea are keen on getting through the door before the transfer deadline.
As you’d probably expect, any deal to sign Haaland would be incredibly complex and difficult to pull off. Chelsea will need all hands on deck if they want to be successful in their pursuit.

Silva’s son, Iago, or 10.iagosilva on Instagram, has been spotted in Haaland’s comments begging for the 21-year-old to sign along the dotted line with the European champions.

Iago is going to end up as somewhat of a cult hero in SW6 if Haaland does sign this summer…
