Willian Borges da Silva, the 24-year-old Brazilian superstar known as Willian, represents a certain archetype: the one who leaves his country at a young age and moves for a big fee to one of soccer's nouveau-riche clubs in Eastern Europe.
As a matter of novelistic accuracy, however, this area was more likely a stand-in for the old-moneyed East Egg in the novel, while the arriviste nouveau riche estate of Gatsby was probably located across Manhasset Bay in Great Neck (West Egg).
