Willian could leave Chelsea over contract dispute

Willian’s future at Chelsea is in doubt, according to a report from Italian news outlet Calciomercato

The Brazilian remains a pivotal player for the Blues and has been a preferred option for Maurizio Sarri in his maiden campaign in the Premier League. 

Chelsea have plenty of wide options within their squad, but the experienced former Shakhtar Donetsk man has been a regular throughout the season so far.

The Blues are understood to be keen on retaining the services of Willian for the foreseeable future, with the attacker’s contract expiring in the summer of 2020. 

Such is the club’s desire to secure his future, Calciomercato reports that they tabled a two-year contract extension for the Brazilian international to consider. 

However, it is claimed that he rejected these advances from the London club, as he wants to sign a three-year deal at Stamford Bridge. 

This has led to scrutiny surrounding Willian’s future at Chelsea, with the alleged contract dispute casting doubt over his position in Sarri’s plans.
