But after five seasons at the club, Luiz has now left to join Italian giants Juventus.
The Old Lady announced that Luiz had signed a deal until 2029.
The Brazilian midfielder made more than 200 appearances in all competitions for the Clarets, while scoring 22 goals and 24 goals.
And it is expected that Luiz will soon be joined in Turin by his glamorous girlfriend and Aston Villa Women’s star Alisha Lehmann.
Reports suggest the value of the deal is around £42m to be paid over four instalments.
However, Villa will also land Juventus pair Samuel Iling-Junior and Enzo Barrenechea in a separate double deal worth £19m.
Luiz shared a video online announcing his move.
He said: “Hello Juventini. I’m really happy to be a bianconero and I can’t wait to play in the Allianz Stadium.
“See you soon and Forza Juve!”
