Transfer: I want to play for Mourinho again – Willian

Chelsea winger, Willian, has admitted he hopes to “someday” work with Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho again.

However, he told ESPN Brazil, that he’s happy at Stamford Bridge amid speculation he could leave this summer.

Willian’s future this transfer window has been uncertain, with Barcelona and Manchester United reportedly interested in the 29-year-old’s services.

“Mourinho is the best manager I’ve ever worked with. We have a good relationship, we are friends,” Willian said.

“Sometimes we talk, we text, we send messages to each other via WhatsApp. He is a great manager, I really enjoyed working with him. I hope I can work with him again someday.”

Willian has been a target of Mourinho’s since the Portuguese arrived at Old Trafford in 2016, but is unsure if any formal offers have been made to acquire him this summer.

“I don’t know if there was any official bid [from Manchester United], but some things have happened,” he said.

“Also, everything comes out on the internet, too. But Mourinho talks to my agent all the time, he says ‘bring him, bring him’.

“No, he has never called me, but he always sends me text messages.

“But I am very happy at Chelsea, I want to stay in the club. I also like living in London, it is an amazing city, and my family is well adapted. So yeah, I intend to stay at Chelsea.”
