Blues supporters begged him to leave the club on social media - just moments after he tweeted out about playing 200 games in the Premier League.

And according to , Juventus will move to bring him in next summer.

The 31-year-old's Chelsea contract is up then, and there hasn't been talk of him extending his stay at Stamford Bridge.

That means Juve could begin negotiations with the player in January ahead of a move six months later.

Willian has been at Stamford Bridge since 2013 when he chose to sign for the Blues instead of Tottenham.

CHELSEA SLAM WILLIAN

SunSport reported how the midfielder tweeted a message of thanks to Chelsea for helping him reach the milestone.

It read: "200 games in the Premier League! I'm very happy to have achieved this expressive mark and I want to thank @ChelseaFC for opening the door for me and making it possible.

"Let's keep working hard for our goals! #200games #premierleague #CFC#W10."

Despite his contributions during his time with the club, Chelsea fans on Twitter had no time for sentiment.

One said: "Leave my club for good ASAP."

While others poked fun at his paltry goal return of around one goal every seven games and added: "And 28 goals or so. Pathetic."

FrankTweets chimed in with: "A goal every 8 or so, you are better than that, you can do a goal every 4 this year."

And it looks like those anti-Willian fans might get their wish next summer - and have their former boss to thank for it.
