Luiz was an £8million signing from Chelsea last August, replacing then Arsenal club captain Laurent Koscielny, who joined Bordeaux the previous day.
Some of the Brazilian’s performances came under criticism, none more so than against Manchester City in the Gunners’ return to Premier League action.
However, Luiz shone following his return from suspension and a switch to a back three, during which time he penned fresh terms with the Emirates Stadium side.
Arteta has consistently backed his player, and following Arsenal’s FA Cup semi-final win over Manchester City, the Spaniard called him ““.
