The Guardian reports that Lisbon has rejected a €20 million offer from London for defender David Luiz.

English champions' manager Carlo Ancelotti doesn't hide the fact that he would like to strengthen the defense, as both main defenders, Alex and John Terry, are struggling with injuries.

However, the possibility of attracting Brazilian Luiz is viewed skeptically. It is announced that "Benfica" would only sell him for a much larger sum of €50 million.
