When Brazilian centre-back David Luiz swapped Chelsea for Arsenal just prior to the 2019/20 Premier League campaign getting underway in a deal worth £8million it is fair to say that head were turned and eyebrows were raised.
It was one of the most surprising, unexpected transfers in recent years.
The former Paris Saint-Germain defender had only signed a new two-year deal with the Blues back in May and it seemed apparent that his future lied at Stamford Bridge.

It is reported that Luiz put pen to paper on a two-year deal upon his arrival in North London last summer, but football.london understands that the central defender signed a 12-month contract with an option of a further year.
