Arsenal close to signing Willian on a free transfer

After triumphing in the FA Cup, Arsenal have now set their attention on securing the signature of Willian on a free transfer after he has rejected a new deal at Chelsea, as per a report from The Guardian.

The soon-to-be 32-year-old winger has rejected a new contract extension at Chelsea, meaning he will be available on a free transfer for other clubs and Arsenal seemingly want to sign the Brazilian international.

Willian is a very experienced winger and he could be an important addition to the Arsenal squad, both on the pitch and off it.

The Brazillian winger has made 234 Premier League appearances scoring 37 goals and assisting 33 in the competition, yet 2019/20 was his highest-scoring season, proving that there is still plenty left in his legs. ,

Furthermore, the likes of Reiss Nelson and Gabriel Martinelli could learn a lot from a player who has achieved success at both club and international levels.
