Chelsea have turned down attempts by Barcelona and Atletico Madrid to sign Willian – despite the possibility of losing him for free next summer.

The two La Liga clubs are understood to have offered around £35m for the Brazil international.

However, Chelsea view Willian as an integral player next season in light of Eden Hazard’s departure to Real Madrid and the first period of a two-window transfer ban imposed by FIFA.

It’s been reported that Chelsea may be able to avoid losing the 30-year old for free next July, if they can reach an agreement over a new two-year deal at Stamford Bridge. [SSN]

Being reported by Marca that Atlético Madrid have won the battle for Benfica supertalent João Félix. He could be announced shortly as new Atlético Madrid player. Atleti will pay the full €120million buyout clause, they report. Man City also said to have been willing to do so

ASYD: preklep..2 mesice

ASYD: no s tím šli do toho jednání co jsem četl


RUDIE: ruku na srdce, přeci jen Gerrard a Lampard byť na hřišti stejní, tak ve školní lavici asi rozdílní kluci

Já nevim no, já bych třeba takhle optimistickej u Gerrarda nebyl. Ale tak samozrejme držim palečky!

MLOK: to je super nápad... pokud opravdu dostane 2 roky hájení tak může s klubem udělat velké věci, respekt bude mít nejen u týmu, ale i soupeřů a rozhodčích... plus je natolik inteligentí, že by měl ten klub s nějakou koncepcí posouvat, pro fanouška jedině dobře
