Chelsea revive interest in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Luiz-c10542
Chelsea, the reigning champions of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749, are reported to have reignited their interest in David Luiz. The Blues, who had seen their previous efforts to land Luiz from Benfica go down the drain, are now looking to make a fresh
attempt to land the player. The team is reported to be willing to spend as much as 20 million pounds on the Brazilian defender and offer http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Paulo-Ferreira-c29445 as part of the deal.
Benfica were previously setting their demands for Luiz at a ridiculous level, in hopes that no team would be willing to match their demands for the player. However, it now seems like the club will have to reconsider their earlier
plans. The fact that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 are willing to spend as much as 20 million and include their veteran defender as part of the deal is going to tempt the Portuguese Champions and they will be forced to think twice before making a decision.
Luiz, during his spell at Benfica, has played 80 games and scored 4 goals. However, during those matches, he has gone on to emerge as one of the best defenders in the world at the current moment. As a result, the Brazilian international
was linked with a move away from the club, on a number of occasions.
On the other hand, Ferreira, who has been with 'The Pensioners' for quite some time now, finally feels he might be losing out on his position in the Chelsea squad. Therefore, Carlo Ancelotti has taken the executive decision and
included the 31-year-old as part of the deal. However, a possible hindrance in Ferreira’s move to Benfica could be the fact that he has previously served for Porto in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984 and it just so happens that Porto and Benfica are two of the biggest rivals in the
world of football.
Should Luiz make the move to Chelsea, he could prove one of the pieces of the puzzle that the Blues are lacking. The player is only 23 years old, which means he would be a long-term prospect for the team and based on what he has
already displayed, he could potentially be the future replacement for Chelsea captain, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/John-Terry-c18895 at the Stamford Bridge.
