Reports from England indicate that Chelsea center-back, David Luiz is pushing for a move to Arsenal after failing to report for a training session on Wednesday.
According to French publication L’Equipe, Luiz has refused to report for training after Arsenal submitted an official bid for his services ahead of Thursday’s transfer deadline.
The French publication states that the veteran defender wants to force through a move to Emirates Stadium despite Chelsea’s desire to retain his services, with tensions between the player and club now beginning to rise.
Luiz signed a fresh two-year contract with the Blues back in May, but according to Metro Sport, he was unhappy with the treatment Maurizo Sarri received before he left the club to take over at Juventus.
The Brazil international brought into Sarri’s unique philosophy and had one of his most consistent seasons yet in a Chelsea shirt, but it now looks as though he could replace Laurent Koscielny at Arsenal.
The 33-year-old left the Emirates on Tuesday to join French outfit Bordeaux, after refusing to join the club’s summer tour of the United States.
