David Luiz, despite being 38 years old, has signed with Pafos, the current champion of Cyprus. He returns to Europe after playing for clubs like Benfica, Chelsea, Arsenal, Paris Saint-Germain, Flamengo, and Fortaleza. He has signed a two-year contract with Pafos, who will face Dynamo Kiev in the third preliminary round of the Champions League.

ESPN BR reports on David Luiz’s agreement to terminate his contract with Fortaleza and his impending move to Pafos in Cyprus. David Luiz reached an agreement to terminate his contract with Fortaleza, which was initially valid until December 2026 with an option for renewal. He is set to return to European football and has an agreement in place with Pafos in Cyprus. He is expected to arrive in Cyprus on Sunday, August 3, to sign a three-year contract with the club.

David Luiz is likely to move to Pafos in Cyprus. The former Benfica player is currently with Fortaleza. This development occurs during a time of significant changes at Fortaleza, marked by numerous player transfers. The club is struggling in the league, positioned second to last, and experiencing a series of poor results, which may be prompting the reshuffling of their squad. In addition to Luiz's possible departure, Fortaleza has been active in the transfer market, both with incoming and outgoing players, under the new management of Renato Paiva, as they aim to improve their performance on the field. Transfermarkt estimates his market value at 300,000 euros.
