Atletico Madrid have re-signed Filipe Luis from Chelsea.

The 29-year-old made a mere 26 appearances in all competitions in 2014-15, with Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho preferring to use Spain international Cesar Azpilicueta, and Mourinho confirmed on Tuesday that Filipe Luis was on his way.

The Brazilian has signed a four year deal with the club.

Jose Luis Perez Caminero, Atletico’s sporting director, said: “We all know Filipe Luis. We strengthen ourselves with one of the most talented wingers in the world. He already knows our club and our way of playing so he will adapt quickly.”
