#3 Willian (Chelsea)
The Brazilian joined Chelsea in August 2013 from Russian side Anzhi Makhachkala and registered 42 appearances for the Blues in his debut season, scoring 4 times. With time, Willian has developed into one of Chelsea’s most important players, managing to feature in the starting eleven consistently despite the frequent managerial changes at the club.
So far, Willian has managed to win 2 Premier League titles, one FA Cup, one EFL Cup, and one UEFA Europa League. The Brazilian’s technical ability and pace, coupled extraordinary speed and dribbling prowess, make him a huge threat on the pitch.
Despite Frank Lampard’s preference for youth, the Brazilian has managed to feature 18 times for Chelsea this season, 14 of which have been starts. However, Willian is in the final year of his contract and will be able to leave the club for free next summer unless he signs an extension soon. Even though he will turn 32 next August, the Brazilian should still have a lot of offers on the table, and the fact that he won’t cost a dime only sweetens the deal.
