One of the world's best players wants to join the world's best team. But it might be too late.
According to a report from Mundo Deportivo, Paris Saint-Germain center-back Thiago Silva is willing to join Barcelona next season. After four seasons of no European success with the French club, the Brazilian wants to play for the Blaugrana and have a real shot at winning the Champions League.
Barcelona has been linked with Silva for a number of years, dating back to his days as an rising superstar in AC Milan. Pep Guardiola and Tito Vilanova tried to sign him when they were Barça managers, but the Brazilian ultimately decided to move to PSG, who offered a much higher salary to lure Silva into moving to Paris.
