Chelsea have also denied claims of selling Luiz following reports suggesting he could make way out of the Stamford Bridge side in order to push through a move for Manchester United forward Wayne Rooney. <br /><br />The Brazilian International returned to training on Sunday having missed the Blues' tour to the Far East because of his national team's participation in the FIFA Confederations Cup.<br /><br />Reports have suggested that Bayern Munich are set to make a bid of £34.5m for the talented defender, suggesting he would be willing to move to the Bundesliga side rather than join another Premier League club which would infuriate the Blues' fans.
