Oscar, 21, told Globoesporte: “I’m thinking about it already. I lost the tournament once, while I was playing for Internacional. Now I really want to win it with Chelsea.”
The Brazilian playmaker is also excited at the prospect of meeting former club Internacional’s rivals Corinthians:
“And we may face Corinthians, a big Brazilian club and a rival of both Inter and São Paulo.
“The club will think about it when we get closer to it but the Brazilian players are already thinking about it a little. We think about Brazilian football and Corinthians.”
