Willian insists he has never been approached by Paris Saint-Germain about a possible move and says he would like to finish his career at Chelsea.
Reports in March suggested that the 27-year-old Brazilian, voted Chelsea's Player of the Year last season, had emerged as a target for PSG as a result of glowing scouting reports compiled ahead of the clubs' meeting in the Champions League.
But Willian is adamant that the French giants have never expressed a formal interest in signing him, and he says he would like to extend his current contract -- signed in July and due to expire in June 2020 -- to enable him to retire at Stamford Bridge.
"I read some things in the press on this topic but personally, I never received a concrete offer from PSG," the winger told France Football. "My family feels good in London and I love the Premier League, which is the best in the world.
"I am growing in a team that plays beautiful football, something which is important in my eyes. For all of these reasons, I intend to see out my contract and perhaps even extend it a little further if the club offers me the chance.
"It would be a privilege to finish my career at a club as big as Chelsea."
Willian scored his second goal of the season in Chelsea's 2-0 victory over Hull City at the KCOM Stadium earlier this month and dedicated the strike to his mother, who is battling cancer in Brazil
