LONDON, United Kingdom, July 1 – Arsenal’s David Luiz is spearheading the London club’s pursuit of fellow Brazilian and former Paris Saint-Germain defender Thiago Silva, according to reports.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Luiz, himself a Brazil international with 57 caps, last week committed to a new contract with Arsenal.<\/p>\n

But, according to the Daily Mail, Arsenal want Luiz to convince his international teammate Silva to make the switch to north London.<\/p>\n

The 35-year-old centre-half is a free agent from July 1, having not had his contract renewed with French champions PSG.<\/p>\n

PSG sporting director Leonardo explained the decision to release Silva and Edinson Cavani was tough for them to take.<\/p>\n

He said: “It was a very difficult decision to make. These are players who have marked the history of the club.<\/p>\n

“Their stories were so beautiful. But yes, we are coming to the end.<\/p>\n

“We had to make a logical decision, economically speaking and with regard to the generation that is coming through.”<\/p>\n

The Premier League looks a realistic next destination for the player with interest from Everton and Tottenham.<\/p>\n

But it’s reported that Mikel Arteta is desperate to get his hands on Thiago Silva in order to bring a new, steely resolve to his backline.<\/p>\n

Le10 Sport reports that Arteta has already contacted the player to discuss a potential move. However, the 89-times capped star is yet to decide where to sign next. As a result, Luiz has been drafted in as an intermediary. He has been tasked with trying to swing the pendulum Arsenal’s way.<\/p>\n

It’s believed the much-maligned Arsenal star thinks the arrival of Thiago Silva can help improve his own game. The pair have formed a good understanding over the years.<\/p>\n

As well as being Brazil teammates, the duo also played together at PSG for two years between 2014 to 2016.<\/p>\n

Arsenal are reported to be confident that Luiz’s intervention will see Silva sign in what would be a major coup.<\/p>\n

Silva was on a \u00a3300,000 a week deal at PSG, but is said to be willing to take a significant drop in wages. Nonetheless, it is reported he would ask for a six-figure weekly salary.<\/p>\n

But as a free agent, Silva very much appeals to Arsenal and the Gunners hope Luiz can help talk him into the move.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
