Willian: Rejected Spurs In Favour Of Chelsea

Chelsea have confirmed the signing of Brazilian midfielder Willian from Anzhi Makhachkala, subject to a work permit hearing, for a fee of £30 million.

The 25-year-old Brazilian looked set to join Tottenham after having a medical last Wednesday but the lure of Champions League football was too good for the player to reject. Willian’s transfer from Anzhi to Chelsea was made easy as Blues owner Roman Abramovich is good friends with Anzhi owner and fellow Russian Suleyman Kerimov.
