Brazilian midfielder Willian has revealed that he is likely to leave Chelsea this summer after seven years with the English Premier League club.
Willian, whose contract with the Blues expires in June, said he is open to offers from other clubs after talks about a new deal broke down.
"I have a beautiful story at Chelsea. I have a great relationship with the fans and everybody at the club. But my contract is ending and it's going to be difficult," the 31-year-old said.
"Chelsea offered me two (more) years. I asked for three and they said it was impossible. I don't know if they can change their mind but, with the end of my current contract, I'm free to negotiate with any team."
Willian has made 329 first-team appearances for Chelsea since joining the London club from Russia's Anzhi Makhachkala in August 2013. He ruled out a return to Brazil in the near future, believing he still has plenty to offer teams in Europe.
