At the moment, David Luiz, currently representing London's "Arsenal", spoke about his future plans. The 33-year-old Brazilian, who started his career in Europe with Lisbon's "Benfica" team, mentioned that he would like to return to that club. The central defender also admitted that he did not want to leave Portugal when he received an offer to join London's "Chelsea". "I was afraid to leave 'Benfica' and take a new step in my career. At that time, I told the club's sports director Rui Costa that I did not want to leave, but he reassured me that the doors would always be open for me to return, and now I must show the world what I am capable of. I never lost touch with 'Benfica'. This club has always remained in my heart. Everyone knows that I want to return here. I want to wear 'Benfica' jersey again and feel that satisfaction. The day I return here will be very special," - D. Luiz spoke to "SportTV". The Brazilian played 32 matches this season with Arsenal, scoring 2 goals.
