Silva in action for Paris Saint-Germain against Liverpool
The PSG captain was in action against Liverpool as the Ligue 1 champions lost 3-2 to the Reds in an Anfield thriller.
But the French club are open to the former AC Milan star leaving in the summer, according to Le10Sport.
They report several Serie A clubs are keeping a close eye on his next move, including former club Milan, Juventus, Napoli and Roma.
Silva has been at the Parc-des-Princes since 2012, following a move from the San Siro.
And he is still well regarded in Italy, despite never PSG’s struggles to make the latter stages of the Champions League.
Silva has 71 caps for Brazil, but most infamously skippered the Samba Boys as they lost 7-1 in their World Cup semi-final defeat to Germany in 2014.
And he was not happy about compatriot Neymar getting flak for his performance in the Merseyside defeat.
He said: “Neymar tried to help the team. He did what the coach asked. People will try to find a culprit. We are all guilty, though.

Thiago Silva lifted the league title with PSG last season
“We were in trouble in the first half, but we showed character and scored. I am happy with my team’s performance – the match was of a high level.
“We need to pay attention at all times and football punished us here.
“We had no opportunities to find Kylian, Edinson [Cavani] or Neymar up top. I think that it was balanced.
“That said, we were not 100 per cent focused.”
