Bayern Munich are reportedly preparing to turn their interest towards Chelsea winger Willian after being frustrated in their pursuit of Arsenal's Alexis Sanchez.

The Bavarian side have been interested in Sanchez throughout the Premier League season, but it is thought that a potential move for the Chilean has been scuppered by the forward's desire to become one of the world's highest earners.

According to Abendzeitung, Bayern are instead thinking of making a move for Blues wide-man Willian, who has been in and out of Antonio Conte's title-winning side this year.

The same report suggests that Willian might be tempted away from Stamford Bridge should he be offered more playing time.

Willian claimed Chelsea's player of the season accolade during the 2016-16 campaign, but has found consistent minutes on the pitch hard to come by under Conte.
