Willian happy with Blues

Brazilian commits to Chelsea but Courtois, Hazard futures unclear

LONDON - Brazilian international Willian has given Chelsea a huge boost by committing his future to the Premier League giant as the futures of Thibaut Courtois and Eden Hazard remain in doubt.

Willian was linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge, but Chelsea rebuffed offers from Barcelona earlier in the transfer window and the appointment of Maurizio Sarri to replace Antonio Conte as manager appears to have eased any desire on Willian's part to leave.
