Arsenal have official confirmed that defender Gabriel Paulista has left the club.
The 26-year-old is one of the many players who will exit the Emirates during the month of August.
Jack Wilshere, Kieran Gibbs and Mathieu Debuchy are also expected to leave.
A statement on the club's official website said: "The Sao Paulo-born defender made a total of 64 appearances for us, following his arrival from Villarreal in January 2015.
"For many supporters, his finest performance in an Arsenal shirt came in last season's Emirates FA Cup semi-final win over Manchester City, when his aerial dominance and tough tackling helped put us on our way to the final.
"We would like to thank Gabriel for his contribution to the club and to wish him well for his return to La Liga with Valencia."
