Chelsea quoted £30million for defensive target

Chelsea Football Club must pay £30million for David Luiz.

With Ricardo Carvalho set to leave Stamford Bridge this summer, probably for Real Madrid, Carlo Ancelotti is looking for another top-class centre-half.

The Italian coach has been heavily linked with Luiz for some time, but he is aware he faces competition from Premier League title rivals Manchester City.

Reports suggest Benfica are now willing to cash in on the Brazilian international, who has been called up in Mano Menezes’ first squad, but only for £30million.
