Barca to make Luiz move

Reports in the Spanish Press have once again claimed that Barcelona will bid for Chelsea defender David Luiz.

The Brazil international has been heavily linked with a move to Camp Nou this summer, with Tito Vilanova’s side sending scouts to the Confederations Cup to watch the centre-back.

Mundo Deportivo believe that the Camp Nou club were deeply impressed by the 26-year-old’s performances at the tournament and will look to make a bid later this month.

The Catalan paper insist that the Blaugrana are also hoping to replicate Luiz’s international partnership with Thiago Silva in La Liga, by bidding for the Paris Saint-Germain defender as well.

Luiz could be available for around €35m.
