Brazilian centre-back David Luiz will leave Arsenal this summer.

The 34-year-old met with club officials on Friday when it was decided to sever ties after two years at Emirates Stadium.

Luiz has made 30 appearances in all competitions this season but the Gunners feel they need to look towards the future after a torrid campaign.

It is not known whether the former Paris St Germain and Chelsea defender intends to remain in England.

Luiz, who joined from London rivals Chelsea for £8m in August 2019, has missed Arsenal's last three games with a hamstring injury.


Could do a job...

Would be an incredible signing for a club of our statute but his £200k per week wages would surely be too much for even Uncle Tony?

I’d take Dunk, Webster, Veltman, White, Duffy, Barry from Eastenders and the cowardly lion over David Luiz, inconsistent and injury prone.

He’ll be off to China or something probably for 7 trillion a month.

Ffs :ffsparr: why would we take a defender who cant defend. One of the most overrated players of our time. The world cup semi final summed it up perfectly.

34 years old ? You've gotta be joking! What about the youngsters coming through the ranks? they're the future the club, David Luiz certainly is not.

great footballer, average defender, never understood why that was his position when so much better in midfield.

I can see how this could work.

Hang on, hang on, hear me out....

Lewis Dunk could teach David Luiz how to defend.

David Luiz could teach Lewis Dunk to to take top-spinny free-kicks.

Everyone wins.

34, injury prone and inconsistent when he does play. Sounds perfect.

Has anybody EVER seen him have a decent game in defence in the Premier League?

I wouldn't take him on a free on a quarter of his current wages.

David Luiz gives the impression of a player who's more excited about individually creating an assist than the team keeping a clean sheet.

With that mindset, he's not a defender and never will be.
