Chelsea are reportedly willing to send David Luiz to Arsenal in exchange for Olivier Giroud.

David Luiz of Chelsea celebrates victory after the Premier League match between Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea at Wembley Stadium on August 20, 2017 in London, England.

It looks like an okay transfer window might potentially turn out to be a brilliant one for Arsenal this month.

The Gunners have already signed Henrikh Mkhitaryan in the deal which saw Alexis Sanchez go to Manchester United and it seems like there has been progress in their pursuit to sign Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Not only that, but The Star reported on Monday night that Chelsea are willing to include David Luiz in a swap deal for Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud, who is linked with a move to West London.

The 30-year-old hasn’t started a Premier League game since October amid rumours of a falling out with Antonio Conte and The Star claims that the Italian manager could let him join Arsenal if the French striker comes the other way.

In that scenario, it would give the Blues freedom to let Michy Batshuayi join Borussia Dortmund, which in turn helps Arsenal to complete their long-awaited capture of the Gabon striker.

Signing Mkhitaryan, Aubameyang and Luiz would certainly represent a great bit of business by Arsene Wenger, and fans of the Emirates Stadium club on Twitter would love that to materialise.
