David Luiz was born on 22 April 1987 in São Paulo, Brazil.
He began his career playing for Esporte Clube Vitoria in Bahia and made his debut. Soon he became the first team player. In 2006, Luiz helped Vitoria to get to Série A, thus attracting attention of many clubs.
In 2007, David switched to Benfica. In 2008/09, he played at the position of a left back, which was not really appropriate for him. In January 2009, he netted the first goal for Benfica and secured a victory in the match against Braga (1-0).
At the end of 2009, Luiz extended the term of his contract with Benfica to 2015 and admitted it was one of the most exciting days of his life. In 2009/10 Benfica won Primeira Liga and wrapped up Taça da Liga.
In the winter 2011, David joined Chelsea by signing a five-year contract. The Brazilian became an integral part of the London side. However, with the arrival of Jose Mourinho he fell out of favor and in the summer 2014 moved to Paris Saint-Germain in an astonishing €50m deal.
From 2010, David Luiz has played for the Brazil national team.
