Brazilian playmaker Oscar says he would like to return to Chelsea in the future.

Oscar starred for the Blues between 2012 and 2017 before making a shock move to Shanghai SIPG, worth a reported £60m.

"I don't think about leaving China," the 29-year-old midfielder told Yellow and Green Football. "There is a great project for me here - but, to end my career, I would like to return to Chelsea.

"I built a beautiful story there and went to the Premier League very young, at a time when fans did not trust Brazilian players that much. I helped change that. I'll be a bit older when I try this move again but, as I am playing very well, with good stats, I feel there is still a place for me at Chelsea.

"I could take up all this interview talking about the good moments and memories I enjoyed at Chelsea, but I have two others that I appreciate the most: my first hat-trick, against MK Dons, and a game against Arsenal where I did not score but did eight slide tackles. The fans applauded me when I got subbed off and it felt as if I'd scored a hat-trick then too."
