Mikel Arteta plans on playing Willian in new position after move from Chelsea

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta plans on using Willian in a central position next season after the Brazilian completes his move to the club from Chelsea.

The 32-year-old departed Stamford Bridge this week after seven years in west London.

The Brazilian was predominantly used as a right winger at Chelsea, despite playing under five different managers during his time at the club.

However, Willian’s always felt that he was used incorrectly at Chelsea and that his best position is in a more central role behind a centre forward.

Arteta clearly agrees and the Spaniard plans on using Willian in a no.10 role next term, according to the Mirror. (Metro)
