Chelsea prepare summer move for defender
According to Italian media reports, Napoli boss Carlo Ancelotti is preparing a £26million offer to complete the signing of Chelsea centre-half David Luiz this summer transfer window.
Italian publication Il Mattino, as cited by the Sun, is claiming that Carlos Ancelotti is planning a transfer raid on his former team to upgrade the Napoli backline.

Chelsea ready to sell defender this summer
As per the same report, the Blues would be ready to offload the Brazil international defender to free up some cash to seal a £35m transfer deal for defender Daniele Rugani.
The central defender struggled to break into manager Antonio Conte’s side in the English Premier League last season despite being a major part of the club’s defence in their Premier League title-winning season in 2016-17.
The West London outfit are facing severe uncertainty in their managerial role following relentless rumour linking Italian boss Sarri with Antonio Conte’s job.
