It has been claimed that Willian was keen on a return to Chelsea, but Romano has ruled out that transfer.
Speaking on his Here We Go podcast, he said: “Willian. Willian is leaving the club, I want to confirm that Willian is leaving the club.
“There is nothing going on with other English clubs, but he’s leaving the club, so 100 per cent, Willian is going to leave.”
A number of clubs in Europe, as well as David Beckham’s MLS side Inter Miami, are working hard to sign the Brazilian, butSky Sports Newshas learned that a return to Stamford Bridge would be his number one choice.
Willian is contracted at Arsenal until the summer of 2023, butSky Sports News’Dharmesh Sheth reported this week that he would likely be allowed to leave early as Arsenal look to free up funds for their transfer targets.
