London, Mar. 06 (ANI): Barcelona are speculated to be on Chelsea defender David Luiz's trail as they are looking to replace their departing defender Carlos Puyol.
Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is reportedly ready to offload Luiz from his squad if Barca, who has been chasing Luiz for months, meets with Mourinho's 25 million pounds valuation of his player, the report added.
According to Metro.co.uk, Mourinho is said to be happy to let Luiz go as Chelsea already have a replacement lined up with Kurt Zouma's expected arrival from St Etienne.
Barca's senior officials are expected to fly to London before the season ends to carry out the transfer as all parties are keen for an agreement to be in place before the start of the World Cup, the report added.
Meanwhile, Puyol reportedly revealed his intentions of leaving Barca in an emotional breakdown as the club captain told him that Puyol does not have a future at the Nou Camp. (ANI)
