Filipe Luis is hoping for a return to Athletico Madrid.

Full-back Luis has failed to cement a place in Mourinho’s first-team, with Cesar Azpilicueta being the preferred man.

He joined the London club last summer but since then, has made only 13 Premier League appearances.

The newspaper El Confidencial is reporting that he is hoping for a reunion with former boss Diego Simeone.

Cristian Ansaldi, who is currently on loan at Athletico, is likely to return to Zenit Saint Petersburg when his loan deal expires.

Due to this, Simeone could sign Luis to give Guilherme Siqueira some competition for his place.

Antoine Griezmann

It is also thought that Chelsea are interested the French international, and the sale of Luis would free up some room in the squad and down the left-hand side to make room for Griezmann.
