FORMER Fulham and Chelsea winger Willian has signed for Olympiakos.
Willian, 36, left the Cottagers this summer after two seasons. He made 67 appearances and scored ten goals after joining from Brazilian side Corinthians in 2022.
Greek club Olympiakos are owned by Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis.
Willian won two Premier League titles, the FA Cup, the EFL Cup and the Uefa Europa League in seven years with Chelsea from 2013 to 2020.
The former Brazil international then left for Arsenal where he spent one season.
After leaving Fulham, Willian said he reckoned he could play for another four years.
“I decided to leave Fulham much before the end of the season in January or February. I had it in my mind that I would leave after speaking with my agent and family,” Willian said.
“I am feeling great physically and in two seasons at Fulham, I didn’t have any problems at all, so I feel completely great.
“I am working in the gym to be in good shape but, of course, it is different from training every day and being ready inside a club. But I am doing all I can to be in good shape for my next club.
“I think my level physically and mentally is great. I think I can play for three or four years more – maybe until I am 40 years old. I feel motivated and at a high level.”
Willian added: “I only have good words to say about Fulham. It was an amazing two years and they treated me so well. I will always be thankful to them for opening the door to play in the Premier League again.
“The owners, people who work in the club, the guys and Marco Silva – he is a great coach and person.”
