Obi Mikel endorses Fulham's signing of Chelsea alum and history-making forward Willian
Published: February 06, 2025
John Obi Mikel, the former Chelsea midfielder, has taken to social media to endorse Fulham's re-signing of Willian.
Mikel and 21,192 Instagram users liked Fulham's post on Thursday announcing the signing of the two-time Premier League winner.
Willian, a well-known figure in the Premier League, rejoined Fulham during the January transfer window, marking a return to the club where he spent time earlier in his career.
Willian, who is the Brazilian player with the most appearances in Premier League history with 317 games to his name, brings with him a wealth of experience, having played for top-tier clubs like Chelsea, Arsenal and Fulham in the past.
His vast Premier League experience, which spans over a decade, makes him an invaluable asset for Fulham as they aim to strengthen their squad in the second half of the season.
Mikel, who played alongside Willian at Chelsea for three years, is seemingly confident that the winger will bring quality and leadership to Fulham's attack.
His technical skills, vision, and ability to create chances on the pitch are qualities that Mikel believes will make a big difference to Fulham's offensive play.
The two shared the pitch during Chelsea’s successful years in the Premier League, FA Cup, and Europa League, where Willian played a pivotal role in creating chances and scoring important goals.
Willian’s return to Fulham offers the team a chance to bolster their attacking options with a player who is not only experienced but also highly decorated in English football.
Having contributed to Chelsea’s successes for several years, Willian’s arrival at Fulham is expected to improve their offensive dynamics and add much-needed flair to their attacking play.
