Paulinho has insisted he wants to remain with Coritnthians despite reported interest from European champions Chelsea, according to talkSPORT.

The report claims the Blues have been heavily linked with the Brazilian midfielder in recent months and new interim boss Rafa Benitez is said to have identified the 24-year-old as a potential signing as he looks to add a new defensive midfielder to play alongside Ramires.

However, while Paulinho has admitted he’s heard rumours of an offer and doesn’t know what the future may hold, he’s insisted he wants to stay with Corinthians. Paulinho is quoted as saying by talkSPORT:

“I am at Corinthians, but I do not know what will happen in the future,”

“I have heard many rumours about offer, but I do not think I’ll move from this club. My desire is to stay here.”

Despite being known as a defensive minded player, the Brazilian has netted an impressive 35 goals in 154 appearances for Corinthians during his three years with the club.
