Bracelona is planning a 30 million pound swoop for Chelsea defender David Luiz.

Barcelona boss Tata Martino looks to bolster his squad and has set aside nearly 30 million pound for Luiz, according to Spanish newspaper Marca.

Luiz, who joined Chelsea three years ago in a 21 million pound switch from Benfica, has been in and out of the side under Jose Mourinho.

Metro reports that Luiz's future has been called into question on several occasions, most recently over the summer.

Luiz was also linked with a move to Barcelona during the last transfer window, with a potential swap-deal involving Wayne Rooney at Manchester United also being mentioned as an option.
