In Shanghai Tang, Brazilian soccer superstar Oscar Deuce Santos is reaching a turning point in his career. The star's contract with Shanghai Port is coming to an end as the season comes to an end. He had planned to return to his native Brazil at the end of the year, but the sudden intervention of the two giants of the English Premier League, Chelsea and Arsenal, has made his future uncertain.
According to Goal's Thiago Fernandes reporter, Oscar said goodbye to the Premier League in 2017 and moved to the Chinese Super League to join Shanghai Port. The 32-year-old is eager to return to Brazil, despite the fact that his contract extension talks with the team broke down last year and his contract will officially expire this December. However, the lure of the Premier League is gradually becoming apparent.
Reporter Jorge Nicola further pointed out that the London sides of Chelsea and Arsenal have long been eyeing Oscar's free agency status. Oscar is no stranger to the Premier League environment given that he has collected two Premier League trophies in his five seasons at Chelsea. Arsenal's positive attitude, in particular, will perhaps be a key factor in his eventual choice, allowing the Brazilian star to make an informed decision on the next stop in his career.
