“Why I’m yet to renew my contract with Chelsea” – Willian

Chelsea Star Willian reveals reasons why he is yet to renew his contract with Chelsea fc.

Chelsea winger, Willian has said he is yet to sign a contract renewal with the Blues because the club offered him a two-year extension.

According to Willian, he wanted a three-year extension deal, adding that it is now difficult for him to continue his career at Chelsea.

He, however, noted that contract negotiations have now ended after both parties failed to reach an agreement.

The Brazilian international’s current contract at Stamford Bridge will expire at the end of the season.

The 31-year-old, who joined Chelsea from Shakhtar Donetsk in 2013, has drawn interest from Juventus and Barcelona in recent months.

“A lovely story that I built at Chelsea, I have an extraordinary affection for the fans, for the people who work there, and I identified myself a lot here,” Willian told Brazilian outlet Expediente Futebol.

“Everybody knows that my contract with Chelsea ends in a few months, so the renewal is a difficult thing to happen.

“I think it will be very difficult for me to renew because Chelsea offered me two years, I asked for three, and it ended there.

“We did not talk anymore, and we did not negotiate anymore.”

Although Chelsea had a transfer policy of not giving players at age of more than 30 contract extensions of more than 2 years which was the reason why Frank lampard left the club but has now offered Willian an extention for 2 more years leaving likes of Pedro with chances of leaving the club this season.
