Chelsea have moved a step closer to re-signing defender David Luiz from PSG in the closing hours of deadline day.
Luiz has been spotted at London’s Heathrow Airport, and took time out to take a photo with a fan.

The Brazilian international joined the French giants in 2014 after former manager Jose Mourinho elected to sell Luiz for £50 million, a record transfer fee for a defender.
Antonio Conte has been left frustrated in his attempts to reinforce his defence with a number of pursuits going pear-shaped.
The Blues have seen bids for Serie A based pair Kalidou Koulibaly and Alessio Romagnoli rejected at various stages of the transfer window and have now turned their attentions to the former player.
The 29-year-old Luiz may look to make the return to the Premier League after it was reported earlier this month the defender would no longer be guaranteed a starting place under Unai Emery.
Chelsea reportedly saw their opening bid rejected by the French champions although negotiations still continue between them.
