David Luiz’s wish to stay at Chelsea is reinforced by Brazilian outlet UOL on Friday.

The website claims that the defender is really keen on staying at the London side, and will do what is needed to renew his contract with the club.

With his current deal expiring in 2019, Luiz doesn’t mind Chelsea’s procedure of extending deals of elder players for only one year.

UOL says that Luiz’s representatives have recently been in China, where they received an approach for the player. The 31-year-old, however, has claimed that he’d rather stay at the Stamford Bridge at this point.

The report claims that the player is pretty well adapted to London, where he lives close to Willian and has a restaurant to take care of.

Speaking to the Brazilian media, Luiz has many times explained how happy he is at Chelsea with the arrival of Maurizio Sarri, especially after the problematic season he had under Antonio Conte.
