Filipe Luis has today completed a return to Atletico Madrid.
The club confirmed the deal today with a statement on the official club website. His former side came calling after Filipe Luis failed to settle to life in the Premier League. After just one season in London, Luis failed to push Azpilicueta out of the left back spot at Stamford Bridge.
A deal has been completed for a reported £15m, Chelsea were keen to recoup the whole £15m they spent on Luis last summer. Chelsea will now look swiftly look to replace Luis, with reported target, Alex Telles. News broke last night that Chelsea are reportedly in the last stages of negotiations with the Galatasary left back.
Luis made just 15 Premier League appearances, making a total of 26 appearances in all competitions. The 29 year old was previously at Atletico from 2010-2014 after joining from Deportivo La Coruna.
Good luck Filipe!
