​Man Utd target Willian quashes Chelsea exit rumours

Chelsea midfielder Willian has reiterated his desire to stay at Stamford Bridge, despite interest from Manchester United.

Speculation has surrounded the possible reunion of Willian and his former Blues boss Jose Mourinho.

The Brazilian flourished under 'The Special One's' tutelage, and his sporadic appearances for Chelsea this season have only served to fuel the rumour.

However, speaking before Chelsea's FA Cup final with Arsenal, Willian committed his future to the London club.

"Yes. I have a contract with Chelsea until 2020 and I am very happy here," said the midfielder.

"I have a great relationship with all the people that work at Chelsea and the fans too. They have been great to me since I joined.
