Arsenal favourites to sign Chelsea attacker
Arsenal are reportedly favourites to land the signature of Willian when his contract with Chelsea expires this month.
The Brazilian has spent the past seven years with the Blues, but he is expected to leave them following their Champions League campaign.
According to The Guardian, the west London side have offered Willian a two-year deal, but the winger has declined the package.
It is added that he wants at least a three-year contract on the table and the Gunners are willing to meet his requirements.
The Gunners board have a good relationship with Willian's agent Kia Joorabchian and they have already made contact with him.
Willian wants the assurance of European football with his next club and the Gunners can offer him that after winning the FA Cup.
They are guaranteed their place in next season's Europa League group stage after winning the competition for the fourth time in seven years.
Willian could be joined by fellow compatriot Philippe Coutinho this summer.
