Barcelona reported to be considering new bid for Chelsea’s Luiz

Barcelona are considering making another attempt to sign David Luiz from Chelsea, according to Spanish newspaper Marca.

The Catalan giants were interested in the Brazilian last summer and it is claimed they could return with a bid of 35 million euros (around £29.1m).

It is also suggested that Barca may move for him now because they are aware that Luiz’s market value could increase if he enjoys a good World Cup.

Meanwhile, Cardiff City manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer reportedly wants to sign Ravel Morrison from West Ham.

The Guardian say Fulham remain favourites to sign the 20-year-old midfielder, who has been discussing a new contract at Upton Park.

Fulham boss René Meulensteen and the recently appointed Solskjaer were both part of Manchester United’s coaching staff when Morrison was at Old Trafford.

West Ham could be willing to sell if they receive a bid of more than £5m, it is claimed.

QPR are reportedly strong contenders to sign Auxerre striker Paul-Georges Ntep, while Armand Traore has been linked with Italian side Livorno.

French daily L’Equipe report that Rangers have offered Ntep higher wages than Rennes, who have been trying to sign him.

Arsenal are among the many clubs recently linked with the 21-year-old, who is said to have also attracted interest from a number of German sides.

Sky Italia say Livorno want to sign Traore on loan.
