Barcelona agree deal to sign David Luiz

Barcelona have reportedly agreed on a deal to sign Brazilian international David Luiz from Chelsea at the end of the season, according to a report.

Luiz, 27, has failed to cement a regular place in the Blues line-up under Jose Mourinho this season, and has often been forced to play in a defensive midfield role.

 

According to Brazilian source Agencia News, Barca sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta is believed to have agreed terms with the West London club over the transfer of David Luiz for a fee in the region of £20m.

 

Luiz joined the Blues from Primeira Liga giants Benfica in January 2011.
