Former Chelsea target: I want to join Tottenham

Tottenham target Willian wants to leave Shaktar Donetsk and revealed his anger at the club turning down an offer from Chelsea in January.

Manager Andre Villas-Boas was coy when asked about interest in the 24-year-old on Thursday, while he ruled out a move for Leandro Damiao.

And it appears the reason the Portuguese coach was quiet was because there has been a bid submitted for the attacker.

“I have a proposal, but it is complicated because the board. Here are many players in the same position, most Brazilian. They buy and do not let go,” said Willian.

“That’s the problem. Everyone knows that I want out, I’m here for five years, won many titles, so I hope you respect my will.

“I do not regret coming here, but this situation has been happening, with Chelsea trying to get me in January and now Tottenham, we start to rethink.”
