Willian is the reigning Chelsea players’ player of the year, but that’s not to say that he’s not expendable.
The Brazilian has been incredibly inconsistent throughout his time at Stamford Bridge. He has only really shone when his teammates have failed to do so.
If Barcelona are offering, as reported by Sky Sports News, as much as £55M – we’d be crazy not to accept it.
He’ll be thirty come the end of the year. Considering he relies heavily on his pace, a downward turn in his performances will likely happen in the next few years.
This is the biggest offer we’re ever going to get for him. It’s time to cash in and reinvest the money into a younger model.
