[西甲]傳巴塞出價35M 追求 David Luiz [復制鏈接]

Transfer news LIVE: Barca in London for Luiz



Barcelona officials are in London to secure David Luiz, Real Madrid will have to fork over £200 million to get Gareth Bale and Wayne Rooney really wants out of Manchester United.


David Luiz may have played his last game for Chelsea with theDaily Mail reporting that Barcelona football director Raul Sanllehi has travelled to London to negotiate the Brazil international's transfer to the Spanish champions. Barcelona have made no secret they're on a mission to strengthen their back-line before the start of the new La Liga season, with a number of top European defenders linked to the Catalan giants throughout the summer. But Barca officials keep coming back to Luiz and are now setting the wheels in motion for a late swoop for the 26-year-old. But according to the reports, Chelsea are demanding £40 million for Luiz. Maybe Liverpool's Daniel Agger is a more attractive option Sanllehi?

Barcelona football director Raul Sanllehi has travelled to London to set the wheels in motion for a move for Chelsea defender David Luiz.
Blues boss Jose Mourinho has talked up the Brazilian’s value to his squad with the Stamford Bridge club ready to ask around £40m.
Sanllehi, who is in charge of transfer and contract negotiations, was planning to meet up with Luiz's agent Giuliano Bertolucci.


The Spanish champions believe Luiz is keen to join them and will press further once Chelsea return from their US tour at the weekend.
The 26-year-old will miss Chelsea's match with Real Madrid in Miami tomorrow with a a suspected hamstring injury.

Luiz, who only returned from Confederations Cup duty for this leg of the club’s world tour, has played just 30 minutes of pre-season, in the match with Inter Milan last Thursday.

Chelsea wrote on Twitter: 'While the other lads trained, @DavidLuiz-4 completed his own workout. He won't play against Real tomorrow.'
The former Benfica star signed for the West London club for £21million in 2011.

Chelsea must dismiss Barcelona's bid for Luiz



The news that Barcelona have made a bid for Chelsea's David Luiz comes as little surprise. The BBC are reporting that the Spanish giants have offered a 35-million-pound straight-cash deal for the Brazilian defender to cement the whisperings that have been doing the rounds for the past few weeks about their interest in the player.

While talk of offers should be routinely treated with suspicion, that it emanated from the BBC adds a certain weight given they demand verification from two independent sources before posting a story. Of course, the eagle-eyed amongst you will remember that they also relayed the erroneous claim Chelsea offered Juan Mata or Luiz plus £10m for Wayne Rooney last month, though they can be excused on that account due to those details being disseminated by Manchester United’s mischievous public relations department.

-Barca's Martino coy on Luiz

The bid makes perfect sense, bearing in mind the style Barcelona have made their trademark over the past decade. The Catalans love the constituents of their back line to be ball-players first and defenders second and are particularly fond of playing defensive midfielders as nominal central backs.

Edmilson, Javier Mascherano, Sergio Busquets and Alex Song can all attest to that. Luiz's attack-minded demeanour and creative instinct would mesh perfectly with Barcelona’s modus operandi, slotting seamlessly into their intricate passing philosophy.

Chelsea selling him, however, makes a good deal less sense for a number of reasons. When the now 26-year-old signed for Chelsea in January 2011 from Benfica for a sum believed to be about £23m with Nemanja Matic going the other way, there were several eyebrows raised at the deal. Those doubts were enhanced still further after an erratic first 18 months at Stamford Bridge as Luiz's erratic performances veered wildly between the sublime and the ridiculous.

Last summer, there were rumours Barcelona were lining up a big-money bid and yet nothing came to fruition, presumably because Chelsea were not interested in selling. In the last 12 months, Luiz's displays have reflected his exorbitant transfer fee as he has adapted and grown into his role to become the dominant defensive figure at Chelsea. He has also shone on the international stage, casting the vaunted Thiago Silva into the shade during his man-of-the-match performance in Brazil's Confederations Cup final win over Spain.

Given Luiz’s upturn in fortunes and burgeoning status in the Chelsea squad, why on earth would Chelsea decide to cash in on him now just when he appears to be evolving onto the model of the modern centre back?

There are also a number of other issues to consider. With John Terry’s future involvement still unclear and Frank Lampard unlikely to be a permanent fixture in the starting XI, there is a potential leadership vacuum within the team, something that could damage a team -- however talented -- when the business end of the season rolls around.

Luiz is still prone to making emotional decisions on the field, especially when events do not go in his favour, but he is frequently an example that the rest can follow both in his deeds and his attitude. Indeed, it would be little surprise if he was given the captain's armband on a regular basis in the absence of Terry and Lampard.

The departure of such a high-profile figure would also serve to undermine manager Jose Mourinho just weeks after returning to the club. The Portuguese was insistent when quizzed about player exits, unequivocally stating nobody in his squad would be sold in this transfer window. To let Luiz go now would weaken his position in the eyes of the players and the fans and potentially give Chelsea’s opponents a psychological boost, leaving them thinking that this new incarnation was not nearly so 'special' as before.

Then there is always the reality that by selling Luiz to Barcelona, Chelsea would be reinforcing one of their fiercest continental rivals by allowing one of their best players to join them. The Blues harbour pretensions to more Champions League glory, but their hopes would only be diminished if they succumbed to Barca’s advances.

And then there is the fact that Chelsea would be forced to enter the transfer market for a centre-back as just Branislav Ivanovic, Gary Cahill and Terry would remain as viable options with Thomas Kalas still too young and inexperienced to feature regularly. The transfer window is only open another 26 days, meaning any negotiations would need to be rushed and almost certainly costly seeing as the selling club will be fully aware that Chelsea would have a hefty sum of cash burning a hole in their pocket.

Barcelona might raise their bid higher and higher and make their offer so ridiculous Chelsea could not possibly refuse it. But unless the Catalans have a bottomless pit of cash or Luiz himself starts agitating for a move -- which is highly unlikely given his undeniable affection for the club -- the odds of him swapping Stamford Bridge for Camp Nou appear as remote as they were 24 hours ago.

Chelsea refuse to sell Luiz after rejecting £34.5m Barca bid... and tell Catalans not to come back with improved second offer



Chelsea have told Barcelona not to return with a second offer for David Luiz after rejecting their opening £34.5million bid.
Sportsmail revealed the Catalan club’s intention to make a formal bid for the Brazil international after making the central defender their No 1 transfer target.
The offer was flatly rejected by Jose Mourinho and the Stamford Bridge club have told Barca officials not to bother with an improved offer, informing them that Luiz isn’t for sale at any price.

Barcelona, though, firmly believe Luiz wants to join them and will press ahead.
They are concerned Chelsea are merely driving up the price and have countered by lining up a £15m offer for their back-up option, Liverpool defender Daniel Agger.
Liverpool insisted on Wednesday night that they have yet to receive a formal bid for the 28-year-old Dane, who failed to travel to Norway for the friendly with Valerenga but indicated any such offer would still be rejected.
Agger feels a great sense of loyalty to Liverpool after they stood by him through various injuries but Barcelona’s interest will prove difficult to turn down if they persist.
Luiz remains the Spanish champions’ preferred option but they recognise Agger’s style fits perfectly into their blueprint.

Talks between Barcelona and Chelsea took place on Monday, with the formal offer for Luiz understood to have been submitted on Tuesday.
But the message that Luiz is unavailable was strong on Wednesday as the club prepared for the penultimate pre-season clash of the summer in Miami, against Mourinho’s former club Real Madrid in the Guinness International Champions Cup final.
Despite suggestions Luiz’s maverick style would not fit with Mourinho’s more disciplined approach, the Portuguese has made it clear he wants to keep the central defender.

Luiz, who missed the clash against Real during the early hours of this morning with a slight hamstring strain, is happy in London but a move to Barca is likely to be a  tempting proposition. Speaking on Wednesday, Barc coach Tata Martino — whose side are on tour — was coy on his side’s bid, saying: ‘We are here in Thailand, I know nothing about this.’
But Martino is desperate to sign a new central-defender with 35-year-old stalwart skipper Carles Puyol in the twilight of his career and increasingly injury-prone.
The Barca boss did, however, reiterate that Cesc Fabregas, who is a target for Manchester United and Arsenal, is staying at the Nou Camp.
‘Fabregas is with us and will stay with us this season,’ said Martino.
