Guardiola tells Bayern Munich to drop bid for Chelsea's David Luiz

Bayern Munich coach Pep Guardiola is having second thoughts about their move for Chelsea defender David Luiz.

Bayern are among clubs, including Guardiola's former team Barcelona, interested in Luiz, who is up for sale for £35 million this month.

However, BILD says Guardiola has told his Bayern directors to cool their interest as he has doubts about Luiz's defensive capabilities.

Guardiola is seeking a new centre-half signing and sees Luiz primarily as a defensive midfielder.
