Barcelona are making a revised bid for Chelsea midfielder Willian.
Sportsmail revealed last week that Chelsea had rejected a £50million offer from the Spanish side.
But Ernesto Valverde is going to return with an improved figure as he looks to add an extra dimension to his attack this summer.
Despite winning the league and cup double last season, the Catalan giants have concerns that their squad still lacks greater quality in depth and attacking flair.
Willian is therefore wanted following the departure of Andres Iniesta and the Barca hierarchy also want him to link up with compatriot Philippe Coutinho.
However, on Wednesday, Willian insisted speculation over a move to Spain would not distract him from Brazil's World Cup campaign in Russia.
When asked about linking up with Coutinho and Paulinho at the Nou Camp, Willian said: 'Well, they are excellent players with a lot of quality. In addition to great players, they are very good friends.
'People speculate a lot. We see a lot of things on the internet, but this is not the time to talk about this. I've not received any information about that. I'm trying to focus on my performance, playing for Brazil.'
Meanwhile, Everton are interested in Barcelona defender Yerry Mina who scored for Colombia against England.

willian is capable of doing the work inesta did but the question is for how long will he do it. We by now need a player who will play for so many years so the board should get a younger player for that position .

Hey Guys! !! lets be cautious when comparing players 😆😆😆 i don't see how Dembele is better than Willian ....if anything William is better or they are on the same level. Just because Dembele is playing for Barca doesn't make him elite, he is still in a work in progress compared to William who has established himself as one of the best wingers in the PL. Ultimately the proof will be in the pudding -because if barca want him it is obviously to replace someone playing on the right hand side
