Willian's wife Vanessa Martins has hinted the Chelsea star could end his seven-year stay in west London by telling their kids 'it's not been easy but good things are on the way'.
The 31-year-old Brazilian is out of contract in the summer and is yet to agree new terms on a contract extension at Stamford Bridge.
Both Arsenal and Tottenham are keeping tabs on Willian's contract situation with the north London duo ready to pounce should the winger become available on a free transfer.

And Willian's partner has hinted the Chelsea star could be on the move come the summer with their kids keen on staying in London.
Willian's wife said on Instagram before Chelsea's home clash with Everton: 'Going to game, not been easy, days are numbered... but god is marvellous, good things on the way.'
She then asks her daughter if she likes living in London to which she replies: 'Love London? Yes.'
Willian and Chelsea are said to be unable to agree on the length of a potential new contract with the Brazil star wanting a three-year deal.
Chelsea, however, will only offer the wideman a two-year deal due to the fact he turns 32 in August.
Willian tried to clear up his wife's comments following Chelsea's emphatic 4-0 win over Everton.
Speaking to ESPN-Brasil, Willian said of his future: 'Look, I always like to make it very clear the respect I have for this club, the affection I have for Chelsea too.
'Regardless of my situation, whether I'll stay or not, one thing I can say: I'll always try to do my best, give my best on the pitch for this team.
'There's really no offer from any club. So I wanted to make this very clear, that I'm still a Chelsea player, and I'll always try to do my best until the end of my contract. Whether I stay or not, we'll see that in the future.
'We really like London, I've said this many times. It's a city that my family and I love to live in, we love the city. We love the city and I really don't know why she posted it. It really is because the situation of the contract here isn't easy.
'But I hope that in the next few weeks or months this can be sorted. And then you'll know if I'll stay or not. But what I can say is that I'll always try to do my best for the team.
'I still don't know. There's nothing with any team. There's no offer from any team. My negotiation for now is with Chelsea. There's still nothing concrete from any team. And the situation with Chelsea is still that way. Chelsea offered me two, I demanded three, and it stopped there. There's nothing much.'
Willian showed he is still capable of impressing in the Premier League on Sunday as the Brazilian scored and claimed an assist in Chelsea's 4-0 win over Everton.

Experience is needed in any team. If CFC fails to keep 3 to 4 experienced players, then let's be ready to cry whenever we play against a more experience team. Balance of young and experience is needed.

We already had Ziyech, for me we have seen alot of Williams. A player that can't score 10 goals a season has no impact to Chelsea. If he refuses to accept the 2 years deal then let him leave. We want to build our team around young talents like Odoi, Pulisic etc
You have no point you really understand nothing it’s not about go but is impact in all our match he always contribute and use his experience play

If Chelsea didn't give William the 3yr deals I can see him going to arsenal our rival and come back to hunt us.. let me ask if those experienced players like William, pedro, giroud, alonso and jorginho as claimed leave in the summer who is there to teach the young academy players and those coming in the way of the blue bloods

Willian has done some good things for the club but ultimately his loss isnt going to impact us the way Hazard leaving has. I dont mind losing Willian if it means we bring in some elite quality players like Ziyech. We should now look at the future too...

the phrase "days are numbered " Could also be interpreted as fewer matches to end the season. and saying "good things on the way " could also mean Chelsea would achieve more success in the remaining games.
