The 29-year-old Brazilian spent three years in West London before agreeing a record £50m switch to Les Parisiens, and joins up with Antonio Conte's side in a deal thought to be worth around £32m.

Speaking to the official Chelsea website, Luiz said: "I'm delighted to return to Chelsea. We had a fantastic story during my first time at the club and I want to help the team and Antonio Conte achieve a lot of success.

"I always had a wonderful relationship with the fans and I am looking forward to wearing the blue shirt at Stamford Bridge once again."

During his two years in France, Luiz picked up nine pieces of silverware, including back-to-back Ligue 1 titles.
