Willian: “I want to give everything for Chelsea”

Willian says he is happy to play for Chelsea until the end of the season but has hit back at plans to force Premier League stars to take a pay cut.

The Brazilian winger is out of contract with the Blues on June 30 and has been linked with a move away after extension talks broke down with the West London side.

Some top-flight clubs fear a delayed campaign into July due to the coronavirus outbreak could lead to legal mayhem over player contracts, with the only alternative being to declare the season null and void.

Football looks likely to return with matches played behind-closed-doors, something the South American winger is looking forward to.

And the 31-year-old, who is currently back in his native country with his family in Sao Paulo, has confirmed he is willing to continue lining-up for the Blues, report The Sun.

He told AP: “I want to give everything for Chelsea until the end like I always did, until the end of my contract, until the end of the league.

“I have to discuss with the club to see what we are going to do. But for me, from my side, I have no problem to play until the end of the season.”
