PSG are also reported to be considering going for German football star Mesut Ozil on loan but the Arsenal star wants to stay put at the Emirates stadium.

Chelsea are currently occupying fifth position on the Premier League standings with 47 points after 24 games played this term.

Reigning Spanish champions Barcelona are said to be interested in signing the 30-year-old midfielder in the ongoing January transfer window.

But after scoring the winning goal that helped Chelsea to beat Newcastle United on Saturday, January 12, Willian committed his future to the Premier League giants.
