Willian Arao's contract with Panathinaikos is expected to conclude next summer, and he is said to be considering his options for the future. Reports from "Vozes do Gigante" suggest that Internacional has expressed interest in the 33-year-old. However, no official negotiations have taken place yet. Following earlier interest from Atletico Mineiro and Santos, Internacional has also entered the competition to sign Arao. It is reported that officials from the Brazilian club have approached him, but no formal agreement has been reached. Arao has played 84 matches for Panathinaikos, scoring four goals and providing four assists, and was part of the squad that secured the Greek Cup last season.
