Chelsea midfielder Willian has signed a new four-year contract, extending his stay at Stamford Bridge until 2020.
The Blues have already signed Michy Batshuayi this summer but the Brazilian's new deal is Antonio Conte's first major act since he formally took charge on Monday following Italy's elimination from Euro 2016.
Willian was Chelsea's standout performer during an otherwise underwhelming 2015-16 season for the dethroned Premier League champions and received the club's Player and Players' Player of the Year awards.
"I’m very happy to sign a new contract with Chelsea," he told the club's official website. "It’s a dream to continue with this club and over the next four years I will try to help the team win more trophies.
"It’s been an amazing time for me since I joined the club three years ago, I’ve won titles and last season I was named Chelsea Player of the Year.
"I hope to be able to stay at that level during the coming seasons and achieve more success."
