He didn’t forget to mention Marco Silva, the coach who had his back and gave him the boost he needed during his tenure. While Willian plans to support Fulham as a fan now, he’s not hanging up his boots yet. He’s free and ready for the next opportunity.
In his time at Fulham, Willian played 67 games, scored 10 goals, and made 7 assists. Not the flashiest numbers, but they show his steady contribution to the team. Now that his contract is wrapped up in July, he’s officially on the lookout for a new club.
Thank you, @willianborges88.
