David Luiz to stay at Benfica after Chelsea fail to impress Portuguese outfit
Latest media reports from Portugal have informed of a collapse at Stamford Bridge in acquiring one of their key targets this fall, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Luiz-c10542.
Rumours are turning out to be true, as the Blues have failed in laying their hands onto the Benfica player. Now, reports are stemming out another flunk by Chelsea arising the question from South of London, “is this for good or
bad?”
Earlier, speculations were rife of the Brazilian international joining ranks of the Blues in the January transfer window. However, all this has changed as Chelsea failed to present a bid that interested the Portuguese outfit.
Media reports from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984 are spreading word that Chelsea will now continue with their dismissive defence this season.
The reports have described negotiations jumping out of hand just today. Hence, Luiz is expected to outlast his contract with Benfica, for now.
Chelsea have been looking forward to sign him since the start of the transfer window. Now that the window is about to be closed shut, they had better look out for other options so that they do not suffer until the end of this season.
Nevertheless, Luiz seems to be out of reach now. According to media reports both sides have agreed to back off from the table, abandoning negotiations as they were proving to be a mere waste of time.
Though Luiz himself desired a move to Stamford Bridge, there were issues regarding transfer fee that hampered the deal from turning into reality.
Sources have revealed that the Benfica President, Luis http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Filipe-c13764 Vieira is refusing to sell his prized possession for any less than 25 million Euros. The 23-year-old defender continues to improve his form and glisten, catching the
eyes of other major clubs.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 desperately need a fresh centre-back and Luiz happens to be a perfect replacement for Blues’ miseries this season. His game play is also considered adaptable to the Premier League hence the want for Luiz increases tenfold
in Chelsea’s case.
Now, Luiz is back in the starting line up of club games. Previously he was on hold as the deal neared completion. Benfica now keep hold of Luiz until the transfer saga became clearer.
