Not sure at Chelsea, Willian is now the target of Juventus?

Juventus will be interested in signing Willian, a Chelsea winger, in January. Once claimed the Daily Express.

The future of Willian at Stamford Bridge is still uncertain. So far, new coach Frank Lampard prefers that the names Christian Pulisic and Mason Mount occupy the same position as Willian. Even Willian couldn't compete with Pedro, who was more trusted by Lampard.

Although not yet included in the top election this season, Chelsea will plan to give a new two-year contract to the Brazilian star. But so far, there has been no discussion about the truth of the rumors about the extension.

Willian's uncertain future also sparked rumors about the 31-year-old's move. Juventus seem to be the people who will be interested. The following article is complete.


Juventus Want Willian

Willian played for four different coaches for six years. And reported by the Daily Express, Maurizio Sarri, the Juventus coach, is interested in meeting Willian.

As we know, Maurizio Sarri was Chelsea's coach last season. Together with Sarri, the Blues were able to win the European League trophy before the coach decided to leave at the end of the season.

After being with Chelsea, Sarri accepted a proposal from Juventus. At the Daily Express, Sarri wants to strengthen his team in January and one of the goals is Willian.

Sarri himself is known as a coach who has a golden child wherever he practices. When he came to Chelsea, he brought Jorginho from Naples. And there are rumors that Sarri wants to bring Willian to Turin.

Juventus has a good track record of recruiting players for free. And that is also what Juventus will try to do in January because the contract expires in June 2020.

Not in Lampard's plan?

Last season, Willian made 56 appearances for Chelsea. The highest number of his career at Chelsea since 2013.

But this season is a little different for Willian. The arrival of a new coach, Frank Lampard, who prefers young players, complicates the task of the Brazilian players.

Lampard has so far used two main formations, 4-3-3 and 4-2-3-1. Lampard prefers the names of Christian Pulisic, Mason Mount, Pedro, who even chose Ross Barkley for a bigger role than Willian.

Willian's position in the team will be even more difficult if Callum Hudson Odoi recovers from injury. Lampard claims to have more Hudson-Odoi in his plans than Willian.

For information, Willian has so far made three appearances for Chelsea in the Premier League.
