Transfer Talk: Barca Plans Wilian, Ruiz Swoop

Spanish giants Barcelona has renewed their interest to land their long time target from Chelsea and Napoli.

The players on the Laliga giants raider includes Chelsea’s Willian and Napoli’s Fabian Ruiz.

According to a report on Mundo Deportivo, both Willian and Ruiz who will see out their current contracts at Chelsea and Napoli respectively, are yet to accept new contract offers at the clubs, thus fueling speculations that Barcelona are well on course.

Willian, 31, had a £50m bid for him from Barcelona disdained by Chelsea in 2018. And the Brazilian recalls how it transpired.

“The only real official offer I had came from Barcelona, last year, after the World Cup. Barcelona indeed presented an offer to Chelsea but it was rejected,” Willian recalled.

“That was the only actual time I had to discuss something like this with my family, although we really love it here [London]. So there were several factors that helped us in staying.”

Willian will have right to talk to foreign clubs when the next transfer window opens on January 1 but he is atill holding out at Chelsea and summer might be his termination point.
