"A different title, in unimaginable circumstances, but one that will remain a source of great pride. I can only thank God that I've become a champion for the seventh time in eight years in Ligue 1. I would never have achieved so much without the backing of my family, in particular my wife and my lovely children, my teammates, the staff and the fans. I would like to dedicate the title to them, to the fans and above all to the medical and nursing staff who are fighting COVID-19 the world over. They're our players today, they're fighting so that we can get back on the pitches and into teh stadiums as soon as possible," posted captain Thiago Silva.
