Juventus close in on Willian free transfer?

Juventus are reportedly in a strong position to sign Chelsea attacker Willian on a free transfer.

The 31-year-old's future is currently up in the air as his contract at Stamford Bridge will expire in June.

The Brazil international allegedly wants to sign a new three-year deal with the Blues, who are presently only believed to be offering a contract until June 2022, leading to a breakdown in talks.

A number of clubs have been linked with the South American, but according to reports in Spain, Juve are closing in on an agreement with the versatile attacker.

Willian, who arrived in English football in 2013, has scored seven times and registered six assists in 37 appearances for Frank Lampard's side during the 2019-20 campaign.

Juve took advantage of the free transfer market to sign both Aaron Ramsey from Arsenal and Adrien Rabiot from Paris Saint-Germain ahead of the current season.
