Chelsea will sell Luiz to fund deal for £45M Atletico Madrid striker Diego Costa

Chelsea have plans to sell David Luiz to fund a bid for Atletico Madrid striker Diego Costa.

The Mirror says while Chelsea are confident of landing Atletico Madrid's £45million Spain striker Diego Costa, more cash will be needed to help pay for a planned revamp, with Luiz - along with mis-firing Fernando Torres - the two most valuable commodities manager Jose Mourinho is happy to offload.

PSG are ready to go toe to toe with Barcelona for Luiz, whom they want to pair with his international partner Thiago Silva in a bid to win the Champions League for the first time.
