Chelsea star David Luiz has broken his wrist after clattering into adversing hoardings against Arsenal in the Premier League.

News of the injury for the defender came via John Cross of The Mirror. Luiz, who rejoined Chelsea for a second time last summer from Paris Saint-Germain, suffered the issue before half-time, playing on until his sending off late in the game. The player faces a three-match ban for the dangerous tackle that saw him dismissed.

Luiz moved to PSG in the summer of 2014 for a then-world-record transfer fee for a defender, partnering his compatriot Thiago Silva at centre-back in Paris.
