Sometimes a piece of transfer speculation however improbable it might seem, just continues to gather media momentum until it just naturally happens.

Already, early last week, we covered the inference that Willian could be set to leave Chelsea Football Club.

Today (Sunday) that inference is gathering momentum with the news source, Calciomercato implying that Chelsea are getting closer to bringing the Paris Saint-Germain 25-year-old midfielder Lucas Moura to Stamford Bridge.

In doing so our referenced source points out that Willian, who made just 17 starts last season could be moved on to make space in the squad, whilst also balancing the books.

But, whilst in our article early last week we lambasted the thought of the Brazilian going to Manchester United, it is that precise destination that continues to gather momentum.

During Jose Mourinho`s ill-fated last season at Stamford Bridge, it was Willian who was Chelsea`s most impressive performer, something the ‘Special One` obviously recalls.
