Willian recently joined Arsenal on a free transfer after leaving London rivals Chelsea earlier this summer.
The Brazil international, who can operate as an attacking midfielder or as a winger, is one of the best players in the Premier League.
The 32-year-old is a serial winner, having won the Ukrainian Premier League title four times with Shakhtar Donetsk, the Premier League title twice with Chelsea and the UEFA Europa League once with the Blues.
Willian also won the Copa America in 2019 with Brazil, and earlier this month, the 32-year-old said that he has joined Arsenal to win the Champions League, as quoted in The Sun.
Arsenal head coach Arteta has praised Willian for his ambition, and he has said that the Brazilian is not satisfied with what he has done so far in his career.
Arteta told Football.London about Willian joining Arsenal to win the Champions League: “Well, it is the right spirit! I want players who are optimistic and willing and they want to win for our club.
“That is the feeling I got from the first day I met Willian: he is not satisfied with what he has done in his career, which is a lot, and he is going to bring some special qualities for our team, and the type of attitude and mentality that you just mentioned in your question.”
Positive for Arsenal
Willian has won a lot during his career, but his hunger to win more and the Champions League suggests that he is not at Arsenal to wind down.
The Brazilian is a creative footballer who scores goals, and he will be a big player for the Gunners whether he is deployed out wide or as a number 10.
