Chelsea are confident Atletico Madrid will accept their offer for Filipe Luis.
The Daily Star says they are confident of landing left-back Luis after tabling an improved £15m bid.
The Blues have upped their offer for the Atletico Madrid defender by £3m after their £12m approach was knocked back last week.
Atletico want £19m for the 28 year-old Brazilian.
But the Blues are hopeful of agreeing a compromise price for Luis, 28, who is keen on the move.
