Willian has revealed that he turned down the chance to join Liverpool in 2013 because he wanted to play for a club in London, while he also rejected Tottenham just minutes away from signing a contract because it was his ‘dream’ to join Chelsea.
At 34, Willian is enjoying a career resurgence with Fulham, having seen an earlier spell at Arsenal not work out as hoped and then returned to Brazil to join Corinthians.
But the veteran winger, who has made his permanent home in London, could have easily had a very different career had he been prepared to join Liverpool a decade ago instead.
