According to goal.com, the Brazil international will sign a two-year deal at the Emirates Stadium and is their second defensive signing on deadline day, joining Kieran Tierney as a new face in the Gunners backline.
Arsenal manager Unai Emery welcomed his new charge to the club, highlighting that experience.
“David has huge experience and I look forward to working with him again. He is a well known player and adds to our defensive strength,” the Spaniard said on the club’s official website.
Emery and David Luiz worked together while they were both at Paris Saint-Germain, where the centre-back spent two seasons, in between his stints at Chelsea.
The 32-year-old won the Premier League, three FA Cups, the Europa League and the Champions League with Chelsea, with whom he only signed a new two-year deal in May.
The Gunners open their Premier League campaign with a game away at Newcastle on 11 August. The match starts at 6.30 pm (IST).
