Brazilian winger Willian, a former Chelsea and Arsenal player, was terminated his contract with the Corinthians by mutual agreement, after receiving “death threats”, in his own words this Friday.
“Every time Corinthians lost and I didn’t have a good performance, my family received threats on social networks. First my wife and my daughters. Then my father, my sister. ..” said Willian, who added that his episode in Corinthians ended. According to some media, he could sign for Fulham.
Corinthians said they accept Willian’s decision, but he did not mention these threats, but rather “personal problems” that led his family to “not adapt, he is not happy and because he is not happy he does not do what he can do, the from Corinth is very big and wonderful. and only here we are happy.” These are the words of the president of the São Paulo team, Duilio Monteiro, in a video released on social networks.
Willian, 34, has returned to the club where he trained from Arsenal a year ago and signed a contract until the end of 2023.
However, he never felt comfortable, despite being the undisputed starter, and his performance was far from what he showed in English football, as well as in the Brazilian team.
this past year, Willian has repeatedly denounced serious threats to him and his family. Last June, the Police even arrested a fan accused of sending him death threats through social networks.
Willian, who played in the 2014 Brazil and 2018 Russia World Cups with the Brazilian team, returns to his home country in 2021 after 14 seasons abroad, where he played for Ukrainian Shakhtar Donetsk and Russian Anzi before heading in Premier.
