Brazilian professional footballer who
plays for French club Paris SaintGermain and serves as vice-captain

he moved to Benfica at the age of 19,
remaining with the club five seasons
(three complete). He joined Chelsea
in January 2011, winning the Champions League and the FA Cup in the
following season. In June 2014 he
transferred from Chelsea to Paris
Saint-Germain for a fee of £50 million
(€62 million), a world record transfer

Born in Diadema, São Paulo to Ladislao

David Luiz made his official debut for
Vitória in 2006, excelling in a 2–2 draw
against Santa Cruz Futebol Clube for
that season's Brazilian Cup.
Benfica

Sport Lisboa e Benfica as a replacement
for Tottenham Hotspur-bound Ricardo
Rocha, on loan. On 12 March 2007, he
played his first league match for Benfica, against União de Leiria. At the end
of the season, Luiz signed a five-year
deal with the club and at the end of the
season, following 10 league appearances, joined permanently for €1.5 million.
However, it was on the 2009–10 season, when new manager Jorge Jesus
arrived to Benfica, that David Luiz be-
came a club symbol and vice-captain.
He was everpresent, appearing in 49
official matches (three goals, 4,206
minutes), as Benfica won the league
after a five-year wait.
On 30 September 2009, Benfica sold
25% of David Luiz's economic rights
on any future transfer to a third-party
owner, Benfica Stars Fund, along with
other teammates. He was tagged at
€18 million, with the fund paying €4.5

in October, with a release clause of
€50 million.

On 30 January 2011, David Luiz completed a move to Chelsea for a fee of
€25 million, a five-and-a-half-year
contract, with Nemanja Matić joining
Benfica at the end of the season after
his transfer spell away at Vitesse in
the Netherlands. He made his official
Premier League debut on 6 February,
replacing José Bosingwa in a 1–0
home loss against Liverpool. Eight
