Barcelona Lining Up £30m Summer Deal To Sign Chelsea Star After Previously Offering £50m

Barcelona will look to offer £30m for Chelsea winger Willian this summer, according to reports in the English media.

The 30-year-old is out of contract in 2020, and Barca believe they can secure a deal for the wide man at the end of the season.

Willian was the subject of a bid from the Catalan club in the January transfer window. The offer was reportedly worth £50m, with a player, Malcom, included in the deal.

The Blues have a big decision to make on the player’s future. Do they cash in on the winger whose value in the transfer market will only drop in the coming years?

Or, do Chelsea look to secure Willian on to a longer contract knowing that they may not be able to replace him if their appeal against a transfer ban fails?

With another winger, Eden Hazard, also tipped to leave, the embargo makes it hard to predict what will happen in regards to the Brazilian.
