The champions of Cyprus have announced the surprise signing of a Premier League cult hero.

The 38-year-old is best remembered for his time at Chelsea but also went on to spend two seasons with their London rivals Arsenal.

David Luiz spent nine seasons in the Premier League in total before leaving for his native Brazil in 2021.

He spent the second half of last season with Fortaleza but became a free agent on August 1, leaving the club by mutual consent.

And his next move has been confirmed just days later with Pafos confirming that he has joined them on a two-year deal.
