Arsenal can snap up wantaway Chelsea defender David Luiz for a cut-price fee today.
The Mirror says Chelsea are poised to agree the sensational sale of Luiz to Arsenal after a string of explosive rows.
The Brazil defender is understood to have been at war with the club as he tries to force a move to the Emirates.
Frank Lampard is understood to have moved decisively after his first big test and a deal worth around 8million is expected to be agreed ahead of Thursday's 5pm deadline.
Chelsea have confirmed Luiz did not train with the first team on Wednesday but reject claims in France that he went on strike amid escalating tensions at their Cobham HQ.
Luiz wants out, however, and is believed to have made his position clear as he believes he is not likely to be a regular first-teamer at Stamford Bridge while Unai Emery wants him to replace Laurent Koscielny.
