Olympique Marseille are working on a Bosman deal for Arsenal defender David Luiz.
The Brazilian veteran will leave the Gunners at the end of this month.
Marseille coach Jorge Sampaoli is a big fan of the defender and has urged management to move for the former PSG star.
And talks have now kicked off between the two parties, with a confidence that Luiz can be convinced.
A source close to the negotiations told La Provence: "It is a possibility, but it is difficult."
