Luiz splashes £1m on presents for team-mates



David Luiz has marked Chelsea's Premier League title by spending £1m on giving his team-mates custom-made gold and diamond-encrusted computerised wristbands, programmed to act as a key for their supercars.

Luiz presented each member of the Chelsea squad - along with head coach Antonio Conte and owner Roman Abramovich - with a Senturion key after training yesterday.

The Brazilian international customised his own key to feature solid 18-carat handcrafted rose gold and 198 black diamonds, and synchronised it with his Mercedes-AMG G Wagon.

But he saved the most special thank-you for Abramovich, whose key is described as being forged from a 4.9 billion-year-old meteorite, making it older than planet Earth.

Ayla Varquin, Senturion's director of communications, said: "It was very generous of David to commission special Senturion pieces for his team-mates and while normally we produce editions of only seven pieces, in this case it was our pleasure to create a custom edition of 30 for his Chelsea team-mates."
