What’s the story? They won’t leave this whole David Luiz to leave Chelsea thing alone will they? He’d be an ideal partner for Thiago Silva having built up a rapport for Brazil together.Does it make sense? Yes for PSG but no for Chelsea. Under Mourinho’s guidance, David Luiz can become one of the best in the world.Is the price right? Hard to see Chelsea selling at all, but certainly not for less than £35m or even £40m.Will it happen? 4/10 – He likes playing in London but might be tempted to play alongside Thiago Silva. He is under pressure from Dante for his place in the national team so partnering him all season might give David Luiz the advantage. It’s very important for Brazilian players to play the World Cup in their own country.
