Fulham has officially announced the return of Brazilian winger Willian to the London club. The former Chelsea and Arsenal player has already taken part in his first training session with his new-old team.
Details. After making an impact during the 2022/23 and 2023/24 campaigns at Craven Cottage, the winger is now back for a third spell at Fulham, joining as a free agent following his departure from Olympiacos at the end of December.
The Brazilian has signed a contract with the club until the end of the current season. He will wear the number 22 shirt.
Quote. “I’m very happy to be back here. I think this is a great opportunity to play for this team again, and I’m fully motivated to get on the pitch and give my best for this club.
I’m completely happy, my family is happy. We’re delighted to return, and I think we can achieve good things until the end of the season, so I can’t wait to get started with my teammates and make things happen on the pitch,” said Willian.
Background. In addition to Fulham, Willian has previously played for Chelsea, Arsenal, Shakhtar Donetsk, Anzhi, and several other clubs.
Earlier, Fulham forward Ricardo Muniz narrowly avoided a bizarre injury at the club’s training facility.
