Arsenal target Willian to decide Chelsea future after FA Cup final

Target: Willian

Willian’s agent Kia Joorabchian says the Brazilian will make a decision on his future after Saturday’s FA Cup Final.

The 31-year-old is out of contract at Chelsea at the end of the season and, Standard Sport understands, has offers from both Chelsea and their Wembley opponents, Arsenal.

Frank Lampard wants Willian to stay at Stamford Bridge but the midfielder wants a three-year deal and Chelsea have a policy of not offering long-term extensions to players aged over 30

Arsenal want to sign Willian on a free transfer and Joorabchian, who has close links with the Gunners, says he also has offers from the MLS and Europe.

Joorabchian told talkSPORT: “He has always said he wanted to finish the season off at Chelsea. Then the day after the season is finished he will make his decision.

“He has two concrete offers from Premier League clubs in the table. He has had a MLS offer and two other offers in Europe. So Willian is in a great position. He is going to make his decision after the FA Cup.

“Physically he is in a great condition. He is playing at the top of his game at Chelsea and is always going to give you eight to 10 out of 10 in every game he plays. He has never had too many injury issues so there is no reason why he cannot play for another four or five years.”
