Chelsea star Willian insists the club’s refusal to offer him a three-year contract extension has left him in a ‘difficult’ situation ahead of next month’s potential Premier League resumption.
The experienced Brazil international has just over a month remaining on his current deal but has intimated he will sign a short-term deal that would see him through until the end of the current season, before becoming a free agent.
Arsenal, who have ties with Willian’s representative Kia Joorabchian through head of football Raul Sanllehi and technical director Edu, have emerged as a the front-runners to sign the 31-year-old who is keen to remain in London. (Text, photo -Metro)
