Isago Silva, son of former Chelsea star Thiago Silva, made his debut for Chelsea's Under-18 team at just 16 years old during a 3-1 win against Leicester City. He joined the youth ranks in 2020 alongside his brother Iago when their father transferred to Chelsea. Despite Thiago's departure to Fluminense in 2024, the Silva brothers have remained in the academy. Chelsea's commitment to youth is evident, with 13 schoolboys, including several younger players, in the match against Leicester, showcasing a bright future.
"It was his 'dream' to see his children represent Chelsea one day, and Isago starting his career in the club is a significant step towards this dream."
"Under-18s manager Hassan Sulaiman has been keen to provide plenty of youngsters with the chance to play above their age group this season, indicating a strong focus on youth development."
