Thiago Silva’s wife has revealed the staggering amount they spent in a swanky London restaurant after Chelsea’s 4-0 FA Cup win over Preston. 

Isabelle da Silva shared pictures and videos from Novikov, a Mayfair-based eatery, before unveiling the bill with a surprised face emoji. 

Chelsea progressed to the fourth round of the FA Cup thanks to a second-half flurry of goals from Armando Broja, Silva, Raheem Sterling, and Enzo Fernandez. 

And his wife revealed the extravagant fashion in which he and the family toasted the victory, with a £900 splurge at Novikov.

What Thiago Silva’s family had to eat

Here are some of the items on the bill!

1 King Crab Leg – £95

1 Peking Duck – £85

2 King Crab Gunkans – £74

1 Maki Prawn Tempura – £22

2 Mango N.5 mocktails – £30 

1 Mochi Selection – £12 

2 Quail Egg Gunkans – £40

2 SA salmon

1 NI salmon 

 

‘A simple family dinner,’ her short caption read.

Some of the most expensive items ordered were a king crab leg worth £95 and a peking duck costing £85. 

Other culinary delights, which appeared to be shared between several family members, included king crab gunkan, salmon, a maki prawn tempura, and a mochi selection. 

There were also a couple of mango N.5 mocktails in the mix.  

In fairness to Silva, while £900 might be a lot for a regular family, by footballer standards it is hardly the most lavish spend for an evening out – especially considering Novikov demands a minimum spend of £50 per head.

Micah Richards has claimed he once spent the equivalent of £118,000 on a night out in Las Vegas.

In another Instagram post, Silva’s wife Belle inadvertently shared a picture of Silva looking at his brightly lit phone screen while in the driver’s seat – an act that breaks the law in the UK.

In the now-deleted social media post, Silva appeared to have pulled up to a red light and took the opportunity to briefly scroll through several pictures.

Chelsea have another cup assignment lined up on Tuesday night when they take on Championship side Middlesbrough in their Carabao Cup semi-final first leg.

They’ll be hoping for a better performance than the one against Preston, where they lacked inspiration for long periods of the game, but were treated to a sumptuous free-kick by Sterling for the third goal.
