Thiago Silva had the opportunity to join Barcelona twice. The Catalan side were desperate to sign a world-class replacement for Carlos Puyol but the Brazilian rebuffed the interest.

Speaking in an interview, Silva revealed: “It was a difficult decision to say no twice to Barcelona. It was never a secret that I have admired them since I was a kid and that I always wished I could play for Barcelona. But life is made of hard decisions that sometimes go against what you dream of.”
“I heard people saying I was just thinking of the money, but they forget we have families to feed. Why would I accept to earn less money to play for Barcelona? Why are players the ones supposed to sacrifice themselves Besides, PSG offered me also an opportunity for a new challenge and the club are trailing the right path,” added the PSG captain.
