Chelsea have slapped a £70m price tag on the head of Barcelona and Manchester United target Willian.
The Brazilian was in the mood for his country at the World Cup with a man-of-the-match display in their 2-0 victory over Mexico today.
Barcelona are very interested in the 29-year-old as they want to bring in a new forward this summer.
The Spanish champions had been hoping to land Antoine Griezmann, but he has now decided to stay at Atletico Madrid.
Manchester United are reportedly looking into a deal for Willian as well but, according to Mundo Deportivo, that will cost them £70m.
Chelsea have set that as the winger's asking price and will not settle for anything less.
The Blues are still hoping Willian will opt to stay in west London, particularly if current boss Conte leaves.
Maurizio Sarri is expected to take charge at Stamford Bridge this week and the Italian is keen to work with the Brazil international.
