Chelsea midfielder Willian admits he ‘dreams’ of playing for Barcelona and Real Madrid. 

Willian admits he dreams of playing for Barcelona.
The 29-year-old has struggled to secure a regular role under Antonio Conte this season, although he was the team’s star man in the 4-0 win over Hull City in the FA Cup on Friday night. Manchester United have expressed an interest in signing Willian since Jose Mourinho joined Old Trafford, but the Brazil international has revealed that he has his heart set on a move to La Liga if the opportunity came up. Speaking in a Q&A with YouTube channel Resenha Delas, Willian was asked to name the clubs he dreams of playing for: ‘Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Willian was on Manchester United’s radar.
‘I think they are the two biggest clubs in the world, Real Madrid and Barcelona. They are the clubs with the most visibility. ‘It’s everyone’s dream to play for these clubs. Of course there are other great ones, like the one I play for, Chelsea, and PSG, other greats. ‘But these two are different. These are two that everyone has the dream to play for.’ Chelsea 4-0 Hull: Antonio Conte post-match press conference Play Video Loaded: 0% 0:00Progress: 0% PlayMute Current Time 0:00 / Duration Time 0:00 Fullscreen
Willian admits he wants to return to Corinthians before his career is over.
Willian also admitted that he is planning on ending his career at Corinthians – the team he started at in Brazil. ‘Sometimes it comes in my head [to return to Corinthians],’ he said. ‘I would like to finish [at that club] and play at least one more year.’
Willian will come up against one of his dream sides this week with Chelsea hosting Barcelona in the Champions League.

He's only three goals away from joining the Champions League 100 club, but Lionel Messi will have to do something he's never done before to get there in the next two games - score against Chelsea. In eight meetings between 2006 and 2012, Messi failed to find the back of the net in 655 minutes on the pitch against the Blues. The closest he came - their last clash in the 2012 semi-final - was striking the bar from the penalty spot, a moment that ended up costing Barca a place in the final. It would have put Barcelona 3-1 up on the night, and ahead on aggregate with 40 minutes left to play against their 10-man opponents after John Terry's sending off. As it was, Messi fluffed his lines, Chelsea held firm and Fernando Torres sent Gary Neville wild. The rest, is history.  He has the chance to finally banish that memory when Barca visit Stamford Bridge for the first time in six years on Tuesday, but the weight of history is against Messi.  The Arge...
