David Luiz is 'very happy' at Arsenal and 'very likely' to stay at the Emirates, says agent Kia Joorabchian despite no new deal on the table for defender and Benfica wanting to re-sign him

Kia Joorabchian claims there is a very high chance that David Luiz will remain at Arsenal beyond the current campaign.

The Brazilian centre back joined Arsenal from Chelsea last summer on a one-year deal but he has already been linked with a move away, with the north London club not yet activating an option to extend his contract by a further year.

It has been mooted that Luiz could make an emotional return to Benfica with his contract at the Emirates expiring, but Joorabchian insists the 33-year-old is very happy at Arsenal and wants to stay.
