DAVID LUIZ might not have a new club yet, but he is clearly keeping himself in tip-top shape.

The Brazilian was released by Arsenal at the end of last season as boss Mikel Arteta desperately tries to reshape his squad.

Luiz shared a photo on Instagram showing off his ripped physique as he hopes to be given a chance by another club.

But he might not be playing for an elite club like he might have hoped for.

The 34-year-old has been lined up to play alongside Mario Balotelli – for Turkish minnows Adana Demirspor.

Newly-promoted Adana want the former Chelsea star after ending their 26-year Super Lig exile.

The ambitious Turkish club have already signed ex-Manchester City and Liverpool maverick Balotelli.

Former Middlesbrough ace Britt Assombalonga and Morocco midfielder Younes Belhanda have also joined Adana.

And club president Murat Sancak revealed talks are underway with Luiz and his advisors.

He told Turkish media: “The discussions with David Luiz are going to continue. I hope we can soon reach an agreement.

“When salaries are very high, one needs to negotiate a little.

“We are getting ready for the new season, and I urge our fans to get ready as well.

“We have signed a world-class star in Balotelli, and added Younes Belhanda to our squad.

“We will sign three or four more players before the season begins.”
