Willian has more assists than Chelsea’s entire quartet this season
Willian of Fulham has more assists in the English Premier League than the Chelsea quartet of Mason Mount, Kai Havertz, Christian Pulisic, and Hakim Ziyech.
Willian has more assists than Chelsea’s entire quartet this season and this is an important statistic for a player who wants to stay at Stamford Bridge after seven seasons.
He left for Arsenal after failing to reach an agreement with the club for a three-year contract, as he was only offered a two-year extension.
Since returning to England from the Brazilian League, the 34-year-old has provided one assist for Craven Cottage.
