Chelsea accept Manchester United's offer for Willian?

Man United have bid accepted for Willian?

Manchester United have reportedly been successful with a £66m offer for Chelsea midfielder Willian.

Both United and Barcelona have been heavily linked with an approach for the Brazil international throughout the summer, but it has previously been suggested that Chelsea would only consider bids in the region of £70m.

However, according to Tuttosport, the Blues have decided to accept United's latest offer of £66m with less than two weeks of the transfer window remaining.

The 29-year-old has enjoyed a successful five-year spell at Stamford Bridge, but the Blues have had to contemplate cashing in on the playmaker due to just two years remaining on his contract.

The report suggests that United's offer for Willian - who has previously worked with manager Jose Mourinho - also contains a number of add-ons and clauses.
