Willian wants Chelsea to hand rejuvenated star new contract at Stamford Bridge

- Willian is hopeful David Luiz will come to terms with Chelsea over a new deal at the Premier League club

- Luiz’s current deal expires at the end of the campaign and Chelsea are unlikely to offer the Brazilian more than 12-month extension

- The 30-year-old Willian currently has 18 months left on his contract at Stamford Bridge

Chelsea star Willian is upbeat compatriot David Luiz will reach an agreement with club chiefs and extend his stay at Stamford Bridge.

According to a UK Metro report, Luiz’s current deal at west London expires at the end of the current campaign and Chelsea are not keen offering the 30-year-old Luiz more than 12-month extension, as it is the club’s policy.

Since the arrival of Maurizio Sarri from Napoli last summer, Luiz has experienced a turn around this season, missing just 90 minutes of Chelsea’s Premier League fixtures so far.

Interestingly, under former boss Antonio Conte the Brazilian centre-back struggled for game time, but Willian is confident the highly-experienced defender will remain in London.

“For sure, of course. I want [him to stay].

“We have to see if they, the club, will want him. I think they want him. For me, I want him to stay,” added Willan, who was repeatedly linked with a switch to Manchester United before Jose Mourinho’s sack.

The 30-year-old Willian is keeping it cool at Stamford Bridge as he enters final 18 months of his current Chelsea contract.

“I’m fine, I’m fine,” he said.

“No rush about that. We can talk about that in the future, no problem,” admitted Willian, who is now among the fans’ favourite at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea are expected to sign a new striker this January with Sarri eyeing the pair of Bournemouth’s Callum Wilson and AC Milan’s Gonzalo Higuain.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously had reported that Chelsea have surprisingly called off their case for Real Madrid midfielder Isco after the Spaniard demanded for extra money.

According to a UK Metro report citing Sun, Chelsea and Isco representatives had agreed a £75m deal including add-ons sending the deal to £100m, but the Los Blancos star suddenly demanded for more ‘cash’ after late interest from Paris Saint-Germain.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,
