 * WHAT THIAGO SILVA SAID
   
   Addressing the crowd, Silva said: "Thank you for taking such a special time
   out of your lives to be with me today. You don't know how special it is for
   me to come home. I was sure this would happen. You know my family will stay
   in London. And this is a demonstration of affection for the institution, for
   you fans and for football itself.
   
   "I would like to thank God for allowing me to wear this important shirt
   again. I feel very proud to put her on my chest for the second time. I want
   to thank Chelsea for giving me an incredible moment and making that moment
   available for me to wear the shirt. My contract runs until June 30th and at
   no point did they deny the possibility of making this presentation today. I
   would like to thank President Mario for all his efforts and for never giving
   up on our dreams. And today it becomes a reality, of working together for
   Fluminense, which is the thing we love most in this world."


 * THE BIGGER PICTURE
   
   The honour of handing over the No.3 shirt to Silva fell to one of the club's
   oldest employees, masseur Geronimo, adding a touch of class to the
   presentation ceremony. Among the attendees were current Fluminense stars such
   as Marcelo, Felipe Melo, Ganso, Cano, and Renato Augusto. The stadium was a
   sea of fireworks and cheers as the veteran defender walked around the pitch
   and waved to the fans.

   WHAT NEXT?
   
   Silva’s return comes as he looks to bring his wealth of experience and
   leadership back to Fluminense, potentially guiding the team to new heights.
   The team will be back in action against Botafogo on June 11 in a Brazilian
   Serie A fixture.
