Willian responded to the continuing developments about his Chelsea future and revealed that he aims to stay in West London for the forthcoming season, according to The Sun.

The Brazilian has been linked with the likes of Barcelona, Manchester United and Real Madrid in the last one month. In a recent interview, Willian explained about his relationship with former boss Antonio Conte and the difficulties he endured during the Italian's reign.

However, Willian did say that he has high expectations from new boss Maurizio Sarri and is looking forward to working with him. The 29-year-old also affirmed that he seldom remains in contact with Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho and would like to play under the Portuguese tactician sometime again in the future.

However, Willian reemphasised that he is happy at Chelsea and wants to remain at Stamford Bridge for the 2018/19 campaign despite the growing interest from Man Utd and offers from Barcelona last month.

Willian added: "I have my head here and I intend to continue in the club unless the club wants to sell me. I also like living in London, it is an amazing city, and my family is well adapted. So yeah, I intend to stay at Chelsea."
