Keep in mind that from 2022 to 2024, Willian was a vital member of the Cottagers. After leaving Olympiakos in December, he returned to the team as a free agent. Therefore, confirmation of the deal was not necessary prior to the transfer deadline on Monday at 23:00 GMT.

Following his successful return to the Premier League team, Willian declared, “My family and I are very happy.” I can’t wait to get started with my teammates and make a positive contribution on the field because we are glad to be back and I believe we can do well until the end of the season.

The 36-year-old made 67 appearances during his previous stint at Craven Cottage, tallying 10 goals and providing seven assists. He is keen to resume his influence in the Premier League following a brief stay in Greece. Willian has made 317 Premier League matches in his career, spending time at Chelsea and Arsenal, where he won the championship twice.

The FA Cup fourth-round matchup between Fulham and Wigan is scheduled for.
