David Luiz has reported passed a medical and agreed terms with Paris
Saint-Germain ahead of his £50million switch to the French superpower.
The 27-year-old is set to become
the world's most expensive defender, with the move beating the two previous
highest fees - both paid by PSG, for Marquinhos and Thiago Silva.
PSG representatives flew out to
Brazil to complete the medical at the World Cup hosts' training base on Friday.
PSG believe they are capturing one of the most
stylish defensive players in the world and they are flexing their financial
muscle again in what will be the first major transfer of a busy World Cup
summer.
Sources in Paris have confirmed PSG had to move
quickly to beat Barcelona and Bayern Munich which may explain the size of the
fee they were prepared to pay.
Chelsea will use the money to rebuild their
squad next season, with Diego Costa top of their wishlist.
Their decision to sell comes quickly after John
Terry agreed a new contract. Terry will play alongside Gary Cahill next season.
Am so happy we finally allow him to go, he is good but he is not always serious and he lacks of seriousness has lead to Chelsea conceding some cheap goals. Happy for him though.
