Twitter Reacts to Juan Cuadrado Chelsea Rumours, Compares Colombian to Willian

Jose Mourinho may be quite content with his current Chelsea squad, but rumours are circulating that Juan Cuadrado is on the cusp of arriving at Stamford Bridge.

Football Italia claims that the Colombian midfielder's agent flew into London on Wednesday to hash out a deal, a rumour corroborated by Sky Sports.

Although Fiorentina are resolute in their attempts to keep the 2014 World Cup star, it is understood that the Blues are following up a rejected £20.8 million bid with something that will satisfy his £26.8m release clause. 

The rumour has inspired plenty of discussion on Twitter, with many comparing and contrasting Cuadrado with Willian. Here's a sample of the trending stats and opinions:
