Oh wow, Chelsea stole Willian from under the noses of Tottenham. Mourinho saying the player wants to come to Chelsea and not Tottenham. Looks like it is only a matter of time now until he signs for the Blues.
Some reports from Madrid saying that Tottenham are unwilling to finalize Gareth Bale transfer (which was meant to happen today) until they have signed replacement players which presumably was Willian + Lamela. So the Bale transfer is now on hold. I wonder if Tottenham will be willing to do the deal if they can only sign Lamela and not Willian. Or, with Willian gone, who will Tottenham pursue next to replace Bale? Interesting times.
