Brazilian Wants To Tackle PL

Chelsea have been on the receiving end of Shakhtar Donetsk’s formidable home record this season in the Champions League and a member of their Brazilian contingent wants to make the move to England.

Fernandinho scored the winner against Chelsea, showing he is more than Rio with a Brazilian-ised name, and having seen the midfielder’s attributes at first hand the Londoners may be interested in bringing the 27 year old to the Premier League.

Sky Sports reports Fernandinho has recently said, ‘if I had the opportunity to play in the Premier League I think my qualities would improve even further.

‘I like England. If I had the opportunity to live here it would be good for me and my family’.
