Chelsea ace Willian explains 'politely' shutting down Man Utd, Palmeiras rumours

Willian has insisted he isn't moving from Chelsea this month.

The midfielder continues to be linked with a return home in Brazil.

But Willian has assured supporters that he remains committed to the club amid interest from Manchester United and Palmeiras.

Jose Mourinho has reportedly made an enquiry over his availability while there has also been speculation over a return to Brazil.

But Willian has dismissed those rumours, saying: "There was never a contact made with Palmeiras, that's why I decided to reply politely. I just want people to make sure that they know I am very happy at Chelsea."
