Chelsea expect Manchester United to commence a bidding war for Willian this summer after Barcelona had a £50m bid for the Brazilian rejected earlier this week, according to reports.
Jose Mourinho brought Willian to Chelsea back in 2013 and the club reportedly made inquiries over his availability back in May.
Interest in Willian comes off the back of Anthony Martial‘s probable departure this summer after being frozen out of the starting XI since Alexis Sanchez’s arrival.
And according to the Express‘ Tony Banks, Man United look set to launch a bid of their own after Barcelona had a £50m bid for Willian turned down by Chelsea.
Whether United will sign another attacking player this summer remains to be seen. The priority at this moment in time certainly lies elsewhere: namely with securing a left-back and a young, energetic midfielder, although that possibility of acquiring the latter has been reduced by Maroaune Fellaini’s recent decision to stay at the club.
Mourinho also wants another centre back and will, just like last summer, jump at the opportunity to sign Gareth Bale from Real Madrid if the winger chooses to leave the Bernabeu in the summer, which would be a considerably better option for filling that vacant spot on the right hand side.
