Andre Santos: I did receive a Saudi offer but I refused decisively, I want to play the World Cup

September 7th news At the last moment of the summer window, Chelsea midfielder Andre Santos was rumored to have received a offer from the Saudi team and an invitation from Arsenal. In a recent interview, Andre Santos explained why he chose to stay at Stamford Bridge.

He said: "I did receive the offer, but I refused decisively because my dream and main goal is to play in the World Cup. I know playing in Chelsea and the Premier League will give me a better chance, better than in Saudi Arabia, and that's the main thing I respond to."

Speaking of the position on the court, Santos said: "I really like playing defensive midfielder, and I think it's my main position because I've played this position since I was a kid. At Vascoda Gama, I also grew up as a defensive midfielder. But at Chelsea, I played a little bit. He is slightly ahead, but I feel very comfortable in both positions. "

Chelsea coach Maresca said before the transfer window closed that he hopes Santos will stay: "First of all, I am very satisfied with Andre, and I hope he can stay. He is fully qualified for Enzo or Kesédo. In the Club World Cup against Palmeiras, Andre performed very well as a No. 6 player."

Santos was selected for the Brazilian roster in this issue, and Santos made a substitute in the World Cup qualifiers where Brazil defeated Chile 3-0.
