Chelsea have rejected a £50m bid for Willian from Barcelona with Manchester United also keen to land the Brazilian.

The La Liga champions want the 29-year-old to add depth to their attack after the departure of Andres Iniesta.

Willian could link up with compatriot Philippe Coutinho, with the pair both starting for Tite's Brazil at the World Cup.
