Manchester United favourites for Willian with Chelsea future uncertain


Manchester United find themselves as the favourites to sign Chelsea and Brazil winger Willian, who could be on the move this summer.

Reports emerged on Saturday stating that the Blues are bracing themselves for a mega bid from their Premier League rivals after turning down Barcelona's £50m approach.

Jose Mourinho's men are 6/4 with Sky Bet to sign Willian before the start of September, with Barcelona available as second-favourites at 5/1.

Willian was a regular in Antonio Conte's Chelsea side this season, making 55 appearances in all competitions.

The 29-year-old scored 13 goals and assisted a further 12, which included a brace of both in the 4-0 victory over Qarabag Agdam in the Champions League.

Whilst primarily playing on the right wing for his national side, Willian has alternated between the right side and attacking midfield for his club.

Bayern Munich, PSG and Tottenham are all in the market, but are considered longshots to make a move in this transfer window.

Brazil are backed for victory in Sporting Life's preview of Monday's World Cup action, alongside 7/1 and 15/2 best bets for the two games.


Odds correct at 1240 BST (30/06/18)
