The out-of-favour defender has received the support of his countryman, amid interest from Ligue 1 outfit Monaco
David Luiz has received the backing of former Chelsea defender Alex, who believes his compatriot is still one of the world's best in his position.
Luiz's extravagant defending has made him an easy target for critics when things go wrong, a cross he has had to bear throughout his career.
And after a wonderful 2016-17 season helped Chelsea take the Premier League title, he has struggled this term by making just 14 appearances in all competitions.
Monaco are one of the teams who are interested in ending Luiz's struggles at Stamford Bridge but according to Alex, the Brazilian centre-back is still an asset for Chelsea.
