According to Brazilian outlet UOL, Willian has rejected a new contract offer of a 2-year extension and, perhaps unsurprisingly, loads of Chelsea fans have been sharing their thoughts on Twitter.
The 31-year-old has had a disappointing season for the Blues, featuring in 36 games under former teammate Frank Lampard yet only contributing 6 goals and 5 assists across all competitions (Transfermarkt).
Willian has won 2 Premier League titles, the FA Cup, the League Cup and last year’s Europa League during his time at Stamford Bridge after the Blues reportedly paid £31.95m to Russian side Anzhi Makhachkala for the set-piece specialist (Transfermarkt).
Amid links with a move for Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho, the Chelsea winger’s market value currently sits at £28.80m and some fans are eager to let the serial trophy-winner leave, with one fan urging the board to “let him go and get me Sancho ASAP.” With that in mind, here’s a look at how some of the fanbase online reacted.
