The agent of David Luiz remains confident that the Brazil international will stay at Stamford Bridge.
Luiz’s current deal at Chelsea runs out at the end of the season, but the club are only prepared to offer him a 12 month extension as per their policy for players over 30 (he turns 32 in April).
It has been suggested that negotiations have broken down because the centre half wants the security of a longer contract.
But his representative Kia Joorabchian said: “We are in a very amicable situation with Chelsea.
"We are trying to work out a deal for David Luiz because he wants to stay, the manager wants him to stay and so does the club. I'm sure something will be worked out."
Meanwhile, Chelsea have increased their offer for Zenit St Petersburg midfielder Leandro Paredes to £31.2m as Alvaro Morata targets a move back to Atletico Madrid.
The Blues are keen to secure the acquisition of Paredes as soon as possible but their opening bid of £26.8m has been rejected.
