Chelsea attacker Willian disappoints Corinthians

Chelsea attacker Willian has ruled out a move back to Brazil.

Willian's current deal runs out at the end of the season and the forward is in negotiations with the Blues over extending his six-year stay in west London.

"Of course when you talk about Corinthians, the club that launched me, I have a great affection," he told Esporte Interativo. "But honestly, I don't think about returning to Brazil.

"I think I have a lot of wood to burn here in Europe. I have a market.

"I'm very happy here at Chelsea. Of course my contract is ending now, at the end of the season it's over. But I'm happy at Chelsea and I plan to stay here."
