Silva, who spent eight years with PSG after joining from AC Milan in 2012, is Frank Lampard's sixth signing of the summer following the arrivals of Hakim Ziyech, Timo Werner, Ben Chilwell, Malang Sarr, and Xavier Mbuyamba.

"I am so happy to be joining Chelsea," Silva said.

"I am delighted to be a part of Frank Lampard's exciting squad for next season and I'm here to challenge for honors.

"See you soon Chelsea fans, I look forward to playing at Stamford Bridge very soon."

Silva won seven Ligue 1 titles during his time in France but leaves the club having failed to achieve the European success desired most in Paris.
