Could the Brazilian be on his way to the Nou Camp?
Chelsea could be set to lose one of their key players this January transfer window, with Brazilian star Willian the subject of a spate of bets.
Punters think the winger is on his way to the Nou Camp, cutting odds from 8/1 into 4/1 that the trickster leaves this January.
A whopping 74% of all bets over the last seven days on Willian’s next club have backed him to join Quique Setien’s side.
Elsewhere, it’s a return to Juventus that’s the second most likely outcome following the January window, with the Serie A side 6/1 second-favourites.
Another Italian side in the shape of Inter Milan are the third favourites at 10/1, followed by Real Madrid 12/1 and Napoli (20/1).
Reports suggest Blues boss Frank Lampard ha issued a warning to the Chelsea board, urging them not to sell the winger this window.
Oddschecker spokesperson Callum Wilson: “Willian may be inconsistent for Chelsea, but he does provide some much-needed experience in what is a considerably young team.
"Bookmakers believe Barcelona have a very realistic chance of strengthening their attacking options with the Brazilian - and so do punters.
"It's not all terrible news for Blues fans, with Chelsea penned as favourites to sing England starlet and ready-made replacement Jadon Sancho."
Willian next club after January:
Barcelona – 4/1
Juventus – 6/1
Inter Milan – 10/1
Real Madrid – 12/1
Napoli – 20/1
