Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino says Thiago Silva will be missed.

The veteran defender is leaving for a return to formative club Fluminense this summer.

Sunday's game with Bournemouth will mark the end of Silva's time with the club.

Pochettino said: "We will miss him.

"Thiago has had a fantastic career and here in his time at Chelsea. We are going to miss him because always when a big character leaves the club, we are going to miss them."
