Barcelona 'to make improved Willian bid'

Barcelona reportedly prepare a second transfer bid for Chelsea attacker Willian, having seen their initial bid rebuffed.

Barcelona are reportedly preparing a second transfer bid for Chelsea attacker Willian.

The Spanish champions reportedly made an approach for Willian on Thursday, offering Brazilian winger Malcom plus cash for the 30-year-old, who has not been at his best this season.

Chelsea are said to have quickly rebuffed the interest, but according to the London Evening Standard, Barcelona are considering making a second offer as they look to land the South American.

Willian joined Chelsea from Anzhi Makhachkala, and the versatile attacker has scored 48 times in 267 appearances for the Blues in all competitions.

The player's current deal at Stamford Bridge will expire at the end of next season, however, and he has only managed two Premier League goals during the 2018-19 campaign.
