Thiago Silva has signed a one-year contract renewal at Chelsea, the club officially announced on Monday.
The Brazilian centre-back, who turns 38 next year, will now remain at Stamford Bridge until the end of the 2022/23 campaign.
Silva said: "To play here is a real pleasure. I never thought I would play for three years here in this great club so I'm very happy to stay for another season."
The 37-year-old remains a key player for the Blues despite his age, featuring in 22 games across all competitions so far this season, scoring two goals and providing two assists.
Marina Granovskaia added: "Thiago Silva's experience, leadership and performances have been and remain very important to this squad, so we are hugely pleased to extend his contract by another year."
