Back at the start of the month, soon after Willian signed a new contract with Fulham, it was claimed he could be on his way to Saudi Arabia.

The player reportedly received a very attractive offer from Al Shabab, and he was said to be keen on accepting that.

Today, outlet Premier League Brasil features an exclusive story on this scenario, claiming that Willian’s exit from Fulham has indeed cooled down.

It’s claimed that the player indeed has a ‘great’ offer from Al Shabab, and the problem is that there wasn’t a deal between clubs.

Even though Willian and Fulham have a ‘gentleman’s agreement’ saying he could leave in case of a very good offer, the player holds big gratitude to the club and doesn’t ‘won’t force his way out’.

Whites’ boss Marco Silva reportedly made a request for the Brazilian to stay, and that weighed on his decision to act calmly as well.

Premier League Brasil makes it clear that Willian is ‘willing to leave now’ because Al Shabab’s offer is very good.

Still, he will only make moves in case Fulham accept to let him go.
