Last week, Chelsea were linked with a 20 million move for the Brazilian striker who joined the Ukrainian side from Corinthians in 2007. But it appears that the Blues have decided against making a move for the forward.<br />

"Willian is a very interesting player, but he is cup tied in the Champions League," Villas-Boas said. "I don't think we should go for players who cannot be involved in all the competitions.<br />

"We are not stressed regarding what we can do in this transfer window. If a good opportunity arises we could study it but, at the moment, we are very satisfied."
