Report – Tottenham make an offer for a player that will likely split the fan base

Tottenham has made a lucrative contract offer that includes a huge signing-on fee to Chelsea ace Willian, according to reports.

The Brazilian is nearing the end of his stay at Stamford Bridge, and he was only offered an extension to his current deal that would see him remain with the Blues until the end of this extended season.

Several teams have been looking to sign him this summer, and his performances since the return of football have helped to attract even more attention to him.

The winger was signed for the Blues by Jose Mourinho and Football Insider is claiming that the Portuguese manager is targeting a reunion with him.

The report claims that Mourinho has personally held talks with the player over a summer move and that the Lilywhites have already tabled an offer for the 31-year-old to consider.

Willian is likely to divide opinion among the Tottenham fans. Some would prefer for their team to move for a much younger player from another team other than Chelsea.

Other fans haven’t forgotten how he snubbed them for a move to Chelsea in 2013 when all was almost set for the transfer to be completed, including his medical (The Guardian).

If Willian does sign for us it will split the fan base, that I am sure of. On a personal note, I do not want him anywhere near our club, not after what he did when he signed for Chelsea. Willian would only join Spurs for one last fat paycheck, let him get his mercenary bag of silver elsewhere.
