Former Chelsea star Oscar says it would be a 'dream' to return to the club, leaving the door open for a stunning transfer.

The Brazilian enjoyed four-and-a-half seasons at Stamford Bridge, where he helped his side win the Premier League, Carabao Cup and the Europa League.

He called time on his career in England's top flight by securing a move to the Chinese Super League, signing for Shanghai Port in a deal worth £67 million.

He still plies his trade in China, but insists he would love to return to the Blues as he eyes a move back to Europe.

"It’s of course a dream to come back to Chelsea," he told talkSPORT. "Everyone knows the passion that I have for this club.

'I have a lot of good memories from there...

"I still have dreams to play for this team. So if I can come back to Europe or to Chelsea, then hopefully we can talk."

The 31-year-old, who scored 38 goals during his time at the club, potentially lining up again for Chelsea got fans online talking.

One Twitter user wrote: "Let him cook."

A second tweeted: "No idea how good he really is anymore against high level teams, but I’m actually curious how he would do."

A third added: "It will be good to have him back for a season."

A fourth said: "Reduced wage, no problem. He is talented and technical."

Another commented: "Rather have him than Havertz in the starting lineups."

Chelsea have endured a miserable campaign this season and are on course to finish in the bottom half of the table.

Mauricio Pochettino is reportedly set to take charge of the team following Graham Potter's ruthless dismissal.

And Oscar has heaped praise on the Argentine coach, claiming he could help turn the club's fortunes around next season.

"He’s a good coach, he works very hard and Pochettino has a strong team, they play like a team normally," he added.

"Maybe this can help Chelsea for next season. I think he will help a lot. I think the players need to show the coach that they want to stay at Chelsea, they want to fight for everything.

"When you play for Chelsea, the players have shown it’s not easy. It has pressure, you need to play to win. When you don’t win, it’s more difficult and they feel this."
