Willian has been linked with a move to both Real Madrid and Barcelona this week.

The Brazilian has not always been a regular under Conte, with Pedro and Eden Hazard often preferred to him.

Hislop believes a player of Willian’s quality should not be sitting on the bench and reckons he will be on his way come the end of the season.

Willian is too good for sitting on the bench at Chelsea, says Hislop

“I think he makes many a team, many a big European team, better.”

Willian scored twice and was named man of the match in Chelsea’s 4-0 FA Cup fifth-round win over Hull at Stamford Bridge last night.

He has 10 goals in all competitions for the Blues this season.
