It seems fans aren’t best pleased with the club after news emerged of bids being rejected for maligned star Willian.
According to Sky Sports, Chelsea rejected £35 million pound bids from both Barcelona and Atletico Madrid for the Brazilian international. The news has enraged some fans, who despite a transfer ban for the next two windows, would like to see the back of the Brazilian.

Willian scored eight goals and assisted a further 14 last season, however, the 30-year-old performed below par for the majority of the Premier League season. Most of Willians best performances had come in UEFA’s second-tier competition, the Europa League.
Willian was touted hugely by Chelsea in last summer’s transfer window, as the club rejected two bids worth £50 million and £60 million for the winger from Barcelona.
Despite a hugely successful spell at the west London club that has seen Willian win two Premier League titles, an FA Cup and a Europa League, fans still want the back of him.
Here is a selection of tweets from Chelsea fans, who are less than pleased that the club have rejected the two bids from the Spanish clubs:
