One of Chelsea's most important members in last year's stunning league triumph, David Luiz has found himself frozen out of the Chelsea squad for both fitness and form concerns. The 30-year-old Brazilian has made only 14 appearances this season as Conte has preferred using Gary Cahill, Andreas Christensen, Cesar Azpilicueta, and Antonio Rudiger ahead of him.

According to The Sun, David Luiz is desperate to move away from Stamford Bridge and play for either Real Madrid or Barcelona. Conte even admitted this week that he would be ready to let go of Luiz in January:

"I was a player – I will understand if someone is worried for the World Cup. I will understand if someone is thinking in this way.

"I prefer to have players very happy to stay here than to have players that are unhappy because when you are unhappy you transfer this to the other players, to me and to my staff and I don’t like this. I like to avoid this situation.

With Barca having signed Yerry Mina, it will be interesting to see if David Luiz does indeed move in the January transfer window.
