# Willian wants to become a Chelsea legend and win Ballon d’Or

Chelsea’s Brazilian winger Willian has [said](https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/chelsea-forward-willian-sets-sights-on-ballon-dor-and-achieve-legendary-status-at-stamford-bridge-a3114791.html) that he wants to become a Chelsea legend and win the Ballon d’Or whilst at the club.

Whilst the Ballon d’Or ambition is well, ambitious; legendary status may not be too far-fetched. He has been Chelsea’s player of the season by some distance this season and has already scored five goals, all from direct free-kicks.

Now, being 27-years-old, he isn’t going to be able to spend over ten years at the club and become a legend that way, however, if he can produce more magic this season and rescue Chelsea’s season after their abysmal start then he may already be considered a legend by some Chelsea fans.

He obviously has personal goals as well as goals with Chelsea as a club and when asked what he would like to achieve before he decides to hang up his boots and retire, he said this:

> That’s my dream, to become player of the year, to win the World Cup, to be a legend at Chelsea.

He also said that it is very good playing under Jose Mourinho:

> For me it is very good \[playing under Mourinho\]. He’s a very positive manager – one of the best in the world – and I learn a lot with him.
