THIAGO SILVA’S 13-year-old son Iago was filmed driving a PORSCHE by his mum Belle as the Chelsea youngster showed off his skills behind the wheel.

Both of Silva’s sons, Isago and Iago, who are thought to be 15 and 13, are in the Blues academy.

The former Brazil international’s wife Belle, 37, has become known as the Premier League’s most outspoken Wag after a number of controversial social media posts last season.

And now she has taken to Instagram to share a video of son Iago driving one of their cars.

He appeared to be behind the wheel of Silva’s £82,000 Porsche Panamera – which has a top speed of 168mph.

And he seemed to be driving on a private road near Chelsea’s training ground.

There are no licencing requirements or age limit if the driving is taking place on private property to which the public have no access.

Chelsea youngster Iago was filmed smiling in the driver’s seat in full Chelsea kit.

He appeared in control of the car as he took the vehicle down the road.

At the end of the Instagram video, he then slowly makes a turn after looking both ways.

Along with the clip, Belle added the caption: “The b*****d did it right. And it was the 1st time.”

It comes after dad Silva left Chelsea at the end of last season following a successful four-year stint at Stamford Bridge.

 

The centre-back, 39, said an emotional farewell to Blues fans, but insisted he could be back in the future given his sons are now at the club.

He said: “I came here with the intention of only staying for a year and it ended up being four years. Not just for me but for my family, too.

“My sons play for Chelsea so it’s a source of great pride to be a part of the Chelsea family – literally because my sons are here. I hope they can continue their careers here at this victorious club that many players wish to be part of.

“In everything I did here over the four years, I always gave my all. But, unfortunately, everything has a start, a middle and an end. That doesn’t mean that this is a definitive end.

“I hope to leave the door open so that in the near future I can return, albeit in another role here.”

Silva played 155 games for Chelsea, winning the Champions League, Uefa Super Cup and Club World Cup.
