Willian is a Brazilian footballer whose biography looks like a dream come true for many boys. A simple passion for football grew into a real hobby, and then into professional sports. Now the most eminent world clubs are fighting for Willian, and even fans of the opposing teams admire his game.

Willian Borges da Silva – this is the full name of the football player – was born in Ribeirão Piris (which is in Sao Paulo) on August 9, 1988.

At the age of four, he did not miss a single match of the local team Corinthians, dreaming of entering the field with his favorite players.

A few years later, Willian’s dream came true: the young man was admitted to the school of this club. At the age of 16, the young man began playing in the youth team Corinthians, choosing the winger position on the field (midfielder position), and at 18 he took part in his first national championship.

The beginning of Willian’s serious career is considered to be 2007, when the talented Brazilian was bought by Shakhtar Donetsk (14 million euros).

At the beginning of 2013, Willian’s career underwent serious changes again: the footballer moved to the Makhachkala club Anji. This time, the transfer cost of the athlete was € 35 million.

Then Willian moved to Chelsea, where he ended up playing 339 matches.

In 2011, the athlete entered the field already for the main national team.

Willian Borges da Silva has had a long and trophy-rich career. Now, at 33, he is an Arsenal player.

His FIFA 21 card is rated 82.
