In 2007, Willian started playing for the Corinthians first team. He made five league appearances during his first season with the senior side as Corinthians finished mid-table. His breakthrough came with Corinthians in the following campaign, featuring in 11 league matches, scoring twice, and making 29 appearances in all competitions for the club.

Anzhi Makhachkala
On 31 January 2013, Willian moved to Anzhi Makhachkala for a fee thought to be in the region of €35million.[35][36] He originally chose to wear the number 10, however due to UEFA restrictions that states a player must wear a number used in the Champions League for the remainder of the season, he was forced to wear the number 88 he had chosen at Shakhtar.[37] After moving to Russia, Willian said he was happy to join Anzhi and wished Shakhtar Donetsk great success in the future. On his debut, Willian sustained an injury against Newcastle United in a Europa League match.[38] He scored his only Anzhi goal on 14 April 2013 in a 3–0 victory against Volga Nizhny Novgorod.[39]
In August 2013, following financial restructuring, Anzhi chose to transfer their whole squad, including recent signing Willian.[40]
Chelsea
2013–14 season
On 25 August 2013, English Premier League club Chelsea agreed a deal to sign Willian for a fee of £30 million, subject to a work permit hearing on 28 August 2013.[41] The deal was made official on 28 August 2013 and Willian signed a five-year contract, receiving the number 22 shirt.[42] Although regulations usually state that non-EU players must be regular internationals, Willian was given a work permit despite only having two caps at the time, as an FA panel deemed that if he were not a Brazilian, he would have been a regular international and therefore would have had more caps.[43]
Prior to signing for Chelsea, Willian had attracted interest from Chelsea's London rivals Tottenham. He completed a medical at Tottenham before meeting with Chelsea, which caused confusion as to which club he would sign for. Willian claims Chelsea was his first preference, and he would have only signed with Tottenham if the deal with Chelsea fell through.[44][45]
Willian made his debut on 18 September against Basel in the Champions League in a 2–1 home defeat.[46] After featuring in wins against Swindon Town and Steaua București in the League Cup and Champions League respectively, he made his league debut on 6 October away to Norwich City,[47] and scored in a 3–1 win.[48] He scored his second Chelsea goal on 1 January 2014 in a 3–0 victory at Southampton.[49] On 27 April 2014, Willian scored in Chelsea's 2–0 away victory against Liverpool.[50]

In extra time in a League Cup semi-final against Liverpool on 28 January 2015, he took the free-kick which was headed in by Branislav Ivanović to put Chelsea into the final.[53] On 1 March, Willian was selected to start against Tottenham in the 2015 League Cup Final at Wembley Stadium, a match which Chelsea won 2–0 to win the trophy for the fifth time.[54]
Willian ended the 2014–15 season having appeared in 36 of Chelsea's 38 league matches as the club won its fifth league title.[55]
2015–16 season
On 16 September, Willian scored directly from a free kick to open the scoring as Chelsea defeated Maccabi Tel Aviv in the club's first game of the Champions League group stage.[56] He went on to score from free kicks in the team's next three matches; Premier League matches against Newcastle United and Southampton and a 2–1 loss at Porto in the Champions League.[57] On 4 November, Willian scored his fifth free-kick of the season to give Chelsea a 2–1 win over Dynamo Kyiv,[58] and 20 days later he recorded a sixth in a 4–0 triumph at Maccabi, making him Europe's top free-kick scorer of the season.[citation needed]
On 9 December, Willian scored his fifth Champions League goal of the season in a 2–0 victory over Porto in Chelsea's final group match, ensuring the team qualified for the knockout stage as group winners.[59] He was subsequently named by UEFA as one of the top XI players of the Champions' League group stage.[60]
On 13 May 2016, Willian was named Chelsea's Fans' Player of the Year and Players' Player of the Year for 2015–16.[61]

2017–18 season
On his 200th appearance for Chelsea, Willian scored twice and won two penalties as the Blues beat Qarabağ 4–0 at Baku National Stadium on 22 November. The win guaranteed the team progression into the knockout stages of the Champions League.[65] In his next appearance, Willian came off the bench to score his first Premier League goal of the season, to rescue a point for Chelsea in a 1–1 draw against Liverpool at Anfield.[66]
2018–19 season
Willian scored his first goal of the season, coming off the bench to complete a 4–1 come-from-behind win at home to Cardiff City on 15 September. Prior to this, he had won a penalty that Eden Hazard converted for his hat trick.[67] On 27 January, Willian, on his 550th club appearance, netted a brace in a 3–0 home win against Sheffield Wednesday in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

In doing so, Willian became the first player to score a Premier League goal in every calendar month.[73] He scored in his third consecutive game from the penalty spot in Chelsea's next league match, a 3–0 win over Watford; the goal meant Willian had scored nine league goals which was his highest league total in a Chelsea shirt.[74]
On 9 August, Willian released an open letter about his departure from the club on Twitter.[75]

On 14 August 2020, Willian signed for Premier League club Arsenal on a three-year contract.[76] On 12 September, Willian made his debut for the club against Fulham, recording two assists,[77] as Arsenal won 3–0.[78] On 28 February 2021, Willian registered an assist in a 3–1 win over Leicester City in the Premier League, which was his first goal/assist contribution in the league for Arsenal since November 2020.[79][80] On 9 May, Willian scored his only goal for Arsenal in a 3–1 home league win over West Bromwich Albion, sealing the Baggies' relegation to the EFL Championship.[81]
Just after a year at the club, which Willian described as "the worst time that he had lived as a professional",[82] on 30 August 2021, Arsenal announced he had left the club by mutual consent and confirmed that Willian was set to re-join his boyhood club, Corinthians.[83]

On 30 August 2021, Corinthians announced the return of Willian to the club on a deal running until December 2023.[84] He rescinded his contract in mid-August 2022 after complaining about virtual threats during his last months in the club.[85]

On 19 March 2023, in the FA Cup quarter-final against Manchester United, Willian received a red card for using his hand to block a shot from Jadon Sancho in the 70th minute, after a VAR check. During the VAR check, Fulham manager Marco Silva was given a red card for arguing with the referee. And after referee Chris Kavanagh gave Willian a red card, Aleksandar Mitrović pushed Kavanagh resulting in Mitrović receiving a red card as well. Despite leading 1–0 before the red cards, Fulham would ultimately be eliminated after a 3–1 defeat.[90][91]

Style of play
This section contains promotional content. (November 2020) |
A fast, agile, and technically gifted player, Willian is known for his quick feet, acceleration, and explosive style of play, which allows him to dribble past opponents at speed whilst keeping close control of the ball which is a typical Brazilian style. He has also been known to pull off feints and tricks, such as the elastico, in order to confuse and beat defenders.[103][104][105][106] He primarily plays as a winger,[107][108][109] and his high stamina, vision, and creativity enable him to link-up play between the deeper midfielders and the forwards, and create goalscoring chances.[105][108] During the 2015–16 season, while at Chelsea, he showed his prowess at direct free-kicks,[110] with almost all his goals coming from set pieces.[108] He improved the statistics of his attacking game due to which he was called Chelsea's top performer of the season.[107][111]
