Transfer gossip: Speculation over Willian’s future continues
Transfer speculation involving Chelsea in Sunday’s newspapers…
Tottenham will only sign Willian if they offload Erik Lamela first, the Daily Star Sunday reckon.
Willian’s Chelsea contract expires this summer and he looks increasingly likely to leave Stamford Bridge.
He has been linked with a move to north London, having previously played under Spurs boss Jose Mourinho at Chelsea.
But it’s claimed that Mourinho will need to reduce his wage bill before a deal can be offered to Willian.
Jorginho still being linked with Juve
Juventus are supposedly ready to offer Chelsea three players as part of an exchange deal involving Jorginho.
The midfielder played under Juve boss Maurizio Sarri at Chelsea and Napoli and has been tipped to join him in Turin.
Miralem Pjanic was previously linked with a switch to the Bridge as part of a swap, but reportedly turned the move down.
The Sunday Express have picked up on reports claiming that Sarri is now willing to part with Douglas Costa, Adrien Rabiot and Federico Bernardeschi in order to be reunited with Jorginho.
And Coutinho still being touted for move
Philippe Coutinho continues to be linked with a move to Chelsea.
The Sunday Express say Barcelona are struggling to sell the former Liverpool star and that he could join the Blues on loan.
