Barcelona set to offer Chelsea one of three stars in return for Willian

Barcelona are set to offer Chelsea their pick of three players, as part of a deal for Willian.

Sport Witness report that the Blues could choose from Andre Gomes, Rafinha, or Paulinho in return for saying goodbye to the winger.

With Chelsea demanding a sum of £70 million for the Brazilian international, the swap deal may also include a cash sum from the Catalan club.

As Barcelona look to offload Rafinha and Gomes, they also seem prepared to say farewell to Paulinho, who has enjoyed something of a resurgance in Spain.

After two problematic years at Spurs, the now 29-year-old moved to China before being snapped up by Barca.

Playing 34 times, the midfielder impressed enough people to gain a spot in the Brazil World Cup squad, and has started all four of the team’s games at the tournament.

Despite a deal for Russian midfielder Aleksandr Golovin supposedly close to completion, Barcelona will retain hope Chelsea will decide to welcome another box-to-box man in return for the transfer of Willian.
