David Luiz has admitted that Spanish giants Barcelona came in with an offer for his services in the summer transfer window.
The 26 year old Brazilian international centre-back was the subject of plenty of transfer speculation with German giants Bayern Munich also showing interest but he opted to remain with Chelsea even after Barca lodged a £21.5million bid.
“There was an official offer [from Barcelona] but I decided to stay at Chelsea,” Luiz told reporters while away on international duty.
“I am happy to play for a big club and be in the national team to represent my country.”
