Former Chelsea star Emannuel Petit says the club won't regret losing David Luiz.

The Brazilian joined Arsenal on deadline day for £8m.

"The fact that David Luiz left the club the way he did tells me that Lampard told him he was not going to feature regularly in his team," Petit told Paddy Power.

"Luiz is 32 years old, and Lampard knows what he's like as a player and was fine with showing him the door – I don't think that's the issue here."
