Chelsea Target Wilfred Zaha And Jadon Sancho As Willian Replacements

Chelsea have now identified Wilfred Zaha and Jadon Sancho as potential replacements for ageing star Willian. The Blues are yet to offer Willian a new contract and are already planning for his exit with various options available on the wings.

Crystal Palace star Wilfred Zaha is a high value target for Chelsea despite still being under a recent transfer ban.

Borrusia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho is also a target after reports of a breakdown in relationship between the player and club in Germany.

But According to The Telegraph, Chelsea sources insist they have offered Willian a new contract but not what he expected.

The issue is Chelsea are reluctant to offer players above 30 more than a 12-months extention and Willian was actually hoping for a new two year contract.

However, Willian is not short of suitors for a possible January transfer with Barcelona and Juventus linked with the player in the past.

Coach Frank Lampard has insisted he wants Willian to stay at the club but Chelsea are very adamant with contract terms.

Striker Olivier Giroud and Pedro are also entering the final year of their contracts and could be allowed to leave in the January transfer window.

But Chelsea still await the result of their transfer ban appeal submitted to the Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS).
