It appears that Willian’s short spell at Corinthians before he was rescued by Fulham has really left a mark on him.
This is what he revealed to Premier League Brazil, relayed by UOL on Friday, where was asked about the last few years of his career, and what he plans on doing going forward.
The winger was brought back to England by Fulham after his stint at Corinthians was cut short, and he has repaid that faith with some good performances under Marco Silva.
His contract with Fulham expires in June, and while he might renew, he knows one thing for certain, which is he won’t be looking to return to his home country to play football.
He said to the outlet: “I don’t want to go back to Brazil ever again. I already had that thought since before Corinthians, but I already thought about continuing until the end in Europe. And now, I intend to finish it out here, whether in Europe, the United States or elsewhere.
“If it can be in England, that would be perfect. I intend to play another four or five years, but people never know because football changes a lot.”
Prior to his time at Fulham, Willian had played in the Premier League with both Chelsea and Arsenal.
