Chelsea winger Willian is looking forward to working with incoming Blues boss Antonio Conte. Conte is currently managing Italy at the European Championships in France, but will join Chelsea once his commitment with the national side has finished.
Brazilian winger Willian expressed his excitement over the arrival of the Italian in an interview with Chelsea’s official magazine, “I hope he does well with Italy at the Euros and can come to Chelsea happy,’ he says.
“Of course, he’s a great manager so I think he will come here and help us and I’m sure he will want to win titles here with us. We have to get back to playing with confidence in every game and the new manager will help us with that, so I can’t wait for next season.”
Willian won the player of the season award last year, but he knows that performances were still under par for Chelsea, who finished 10th in the table, “The Chelsea fans deserve more and we know that,’ he says. ‘We need to come back for 2016/17 stronger to win titles for them.
“It’s not a case of using last season as motivation; we need to forget about it. We have the quality to improve next season and for sure we will come back strong and do everything we can to win titles for Chelsea and our fans.”
