Chelsea are reportedly continuing contract talks with David Luiz, who has turned down a lucrative deal to head to the Middle East at the end of the season.

  • The Brazil international has just three months remaining on his contract and so far, he has failed to agree on an extension with the Blues reluctant to offer him with a multi-year deal.

    Amidst this, the central defender is said to have received a £220,000-a-week package from an unnamed Qatari club, but he has snubbed the advances with the objective of remaining with the Blues.

    Luiz is presently on a £130,000-a-week salary at Chelsea and he is hopeful of earning at least a two-year contract despite the club's shrewd policy of handing 12-month deals to players above the age of 30.

    The 32-year-old has made almost 250 appearances for Chelsea across two spells with the club. He has won five major honours in the process including the Champions League title in 2012.
