Real Betis striker Willian Jose: These two clubs wanted me in January...

Willian Jose admits he had two offers to leave Real Betis in Jauary.

However, the Brazilian striker insists he wants to finish the job he has at Betis.

He revealed: "From Palmeiras they called me asking, but there was nothing official.

"From Las Palmas yes, they called me too, but it was not the time. I was very happy here. When you are not playing things get difficult, but I am working to improve.

"I am always calm, I don't like controversies."

He also said of Betis coach Manuel Pellegrini: "I talk to him a lot because he is a coach who is like a father. Everyone plays for him.

"Like all players we have good and bad moments. I didn't start well, the players need to play to have confidence and now that I am playing the goals are coming naturally."
