Chelsea defender David Luiz has admitted that he has spoken about Paris St Germain with his Brazilian team mates according to Goal.com.
The defender has been heavily linked with a move to the French champions and the club are believed to be looking into signing Luiz as a defensive partner to Thiago Silva.
The news that Luiz has been speaking to his team mates about the French club will heighten speculation.
“I’m talking a lot about PSG and its project with Brazilian players,” Luiz said in an interview.
“The club did a good job in Ligue 1, and they have very good players like Lucas Moura, Thiago Motta, Maxwell and Thiago Silva. And I don’t speak about it with others, just Brazilians.”
Reports have suggested that new Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is ready to cash in on Luiz as he doesn’t rate him and will accept bids of around £30 million.
PSG could end up fighting it out with Barcelona, who are also known to have an interest in the Brazilian, and see potential in the way Luiz brings the ball out of defence.
Barcelona are also interested in PSG’s central defender Thiago Silva, and reports have suggested that Silva could leave Paris this summer because of manager Carlo Ancelotti’s imminent departure to Real Madrid.
