Tottenham receive transfer boost as Willian expects to leave Chelsea

The 70-times capped Brazil international has revealed that the Blues are not willing to offer him a three-year deal at the club and that all negotiations have stopped at the moment.

Willian joined Chelsea from Anzhi Makhachkala for a reported fee of £30 million in a controversial transfer move. The Brazilian was close to joining Tottenham Hotspur, but he moved to their London rivals instead.

And now, Spurs have a chance to sign him as Jose Mourinho is looking to bolster his attacking options by reuniting with his former player.
