Chelsea winger Willian has racked up 300 appearances for the Blues over his career s far.
Chelsea fans have praised Willian after his comments showed just how committed he is to the club.
Willian recently made his 300th appearance for Chelsea, with the Brazilian proving to be a hugely loyal servant of the football club after his £30 million move back in 2013 (BBC Sport).
Willian has now suggested that he would like to stay at Chelsea and sign a new contract, with his current deal due to expire in the near future.
But he also said that whatever happens, he is very proud to have represented the Blues for so long.
“I loved the name, ‘Chelsea’. The colour blue. When I stop playing, my name will be there,” Willian said to the club’s official website.
“No-one can cross it off. I feel proud of that.”
The quotes have only served to increase Willian’s popularity with the Stamford Bridge crowd, with the winger rapidly gaining support this season.
Willian has faced criticism at times during his Chelsea career, but he appears to be in very sharp form now.
Frank Lampard has recently suggested that Willian has been Chelsea’s best player over their last five matches, with his whole-hearted performances earning great praise.
Chelsea return to action after the international break, when Willian looks set to start again.
