Arsenal are looking to make another surprising move for a Chelsea player next month.
The Gunners were able to sign Petr Cech in the summer of 2015 as Blues owner Roman Abramovich allowed the Czech Republic to join a direct rival as a reward for his services to them.
However, that transfer seems to have given the Gunners a rare confidence that they can sign any player from their rival, and they are now targeting David Luiz.
The defender has been out of action for the Blues since November.
He also had a very publicized falling out with Blues manager, Antonio Conte for his display in their 3-0 loss to AS Roma.
Although Conte has rejected suggestions, that the Brazilian is out of the team because of the fall out rather than an injury, it is hard to see him getting back into the team given the form of Andreas Christensen.
And Arsenal want to sign him with the promise of regular football.
Sun Sport is reporting that the Gunners are set to tempt the Blues with a £25 million bid for the 30 years old.
Luiz is expected to be out until the new year because of a mystery injury, but if he does recover on time next month and cannot force his way back into the Blues first team, Arsenal would swoop.
