Barcelona have made an offer worth £53million for Chelsea’s Brazil winger Willian.

The La Liga club have been linked with Eden Hazard in recent weeks, but they can’t afford the Belgium international, who is valued well in excess of £100m.

Chelsea are determined not to sell Hazard this summer and are ready to ignore any bids from Real Madrid too, whose priorities at this point are one of Neymar or Kylian Mbappe.

The club are more willing to negotiate for Willian though. He turns 30 in August and has two years remaining on his current deal.

Willian has not been a first team regular in recent seasons, but starred against Barcelona in the Champions League last 16 tie between the two clubs last term.

He also shone for Brazil at the World Cup, where they reached the quarter-finals only to lose to Belgium 2-1 following an own goal from Fernandinho and a strike from Kevin De Bruyne.
