Chelsea set to offer key-player a lucrative new contract

WillianChelsea fans in the Transfer Tavern are pleased to finally see some positive news emerge concerning their club, with reports suggesting a key-player will have his future secured.

The Sun state the Blues will offer Willian a new deal worth over £100k-a-week, as they look to ensure they keep hold of the Brazilian with eyes from Europe’s elite watching.

Chelsea are currently struggling in the Premier League, losing seven of their opening 12, but Willian is one player who can hold his head high after decent performances- including a last-gasp winner against Dynamo Kyiv in the Champions League last week.

With concerns rising as to whether the Blues can keep hold of their top players despite facing a potential season away from Europe’s premium competition, it appears the 27-year-old is being targeted to set a precedent at the club.

Fans hope that Willian’s new deal will lead to more players securing their futures with the West London side but concede that many will move on at the end of the season.

Chelsea fans, how good has Willian been this season? Will he be crucial to the turnaround you need? Let us know in the comments!
