Willian won't renew with Chelsea and is set for Barcelona in the summer (Marca)

Barcelona are close to agreeing a deal to bring Willian to the Camp Nou once his contract at Chelsea expires at the end of the season.

The Premier League club have tried to renew the Brazilian's deal, which ends on June 30, but the forward wants a change of scene.

Barcelona have shown interest in the 31-year-old for some time and have met with his representatives several times to reach an agreement.

Barcelona came close to signing the Brazilian in the summer of 2018, but the transfer never came through.

Willian is represented as the same agency, Sport Invest, as Philippe Coutinho, who could join his compatriot at the Camp Nou next season.

Chelsea know Willian will leave the club, but they refused to let him leave in January because of the shortage of players in Frank Lampard's current squad.
