However, Globo Esporte says the former Chelsea defender had proposals from West Ham United and Everton to remain in England.

He also was wanted by former club Benfica and Qatar's Al-Rayyan.

But in the end, the 34 year-old Luiz felt a return home to Brazil was the best option at this stage of his career.
