Jose Mourinho has announced that Felipe Luis, his Brazilian left-back is leaving Stamford Bridge, and he also suggested that a replacement is going to be their only transfer dealing u till the window ends.

In a U-turn in normal transfer policy of not announcing deals in-or out until the contract is signed or shredded, Mourinho has taken the club by surprise by announcing Luis is off.

The team are in Montreal ahead of their pre-season matches in the USA and Mourinho said before they left: " In this moment we need a left-back because I think we are selling Filipe Luis now or tomorrow, but I think we will sell Filipe Luis.

'We need to go the market, we need to find a club that accepts a bid until 31 August, and we are going for a left-back. In other positions we have no space."
