There continues to be speculation over the futures of Chelsea duo Juan Mata and David Luiz.
The Evening Standard say Paris St-Germain are ready to make a £30m bid for Mata, with Atletico Madrid and Inter Milan also apparently monitoring the situation.

Based on German press reports, the Mirror link Luiz with a possible move to Bayern Munich.
And Goal.com say Barcelona have made another enquiry about the Brazilian, with St Etienne defender Kurt Zouma lined up by Chelsea as a possible replacement.
Meanwhile, Arsenal have again been linked Loic Remy, this time by the Express.
