Willian becomes the fourth Chelsea player in the Brazil squad after call up from Luiz Felipe Scolari. Chelsea midfielder Willian has been included in the Brazil squad for the upcoming friendlies with Chile and Honduras. Willian, who was signed from Shaktar Donetsk for £32million, has found himself in and out of the Chelsea starting line up as Jose Mourinho continues to rotate. The 25-year-old has two caps for Brazil, both won in 2011. Willian joins three other Chelsea players - David Luiz, Oscar and Ramires - in the Selecao. BRAZIL SQUAD Chelsea players in bold Julio Cesar, Victor;DAVID LUIZ, Dante, Thiago Silva, Marquinhos, Daniel Alves, Maicon, Marcelo, Maxwell; Lucas, Hernanes, Luiz Gustavo, Paulinho, RAMIREZ, OSCAR, Bernard, WILLIAN, Jo, Robinho, Hulk, Neymar. Luiz Felipe Scolari added some other faces that haven't been seen in yellow in the last couple of years. AC Milan forward Robinho is back after his own two-year exile, but Manchester United defender Rafael misses out with former Manchester City full back Maicon preferred. Other surprises see £45m Paris Saint-Germain star Lucas Mouroa left out of the squad - he has often found himself on the PSG bench with Edinson Cavani, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Ezequiel Lavezzi in fine form for the Ligue 1 leaders. Willian has made seven appearances for Chelsea this season, three as a substitute, scoring one goal and providing two assists.
