David Luiz seemed on his way out of Chelsea having fallen out of favour with Antonio Conte last season after he criticised the Italian’s tactics following a heavy Champions League defeat at Roma.
The Brazilian has been ever present this season and started each of Chelsea’s five Premier League games so far, playing a key role in the our 100% start to the season.
Luiz has just under a year remaining on his current contract, and reports now claim Chelsea are willing to hand the 31-year-old Brazilian a new deal.
According to the Mirror, Chelsea are keen to secure the long-term future of the experienced centre half before the January transfer window opens.
