David Luiz is following in the footsteps of some illustrious Brazilians in signing for Arsenal.
Some of the most famous names to play in our colours are those of Gilberto Silva and Edu - our current technical director - but David’s knowledge of our Brazilians doesn’t stop there.
"Edu was a great player, a very talented player - someone who everyone enjoyed watching play," David Luiz said. "He was a great guy, a great person and he is ready for this role because he's intelligent, he knows how to be with people, he knows how to win things, he is a winner and he is going to try to improve the club.
