Nottingham Forest Approaches Signing Douglas Luiz
The website "Football Italia" confirmed that Nottingham Forest remains the leading candidate to sign Juventus midfielder Douglas Luiz, amid interest also from Turkish club Fenerbahçe and Aston Villa.
The Brazilian star joined Juventus in the summer of 2024 from Aston Villa for €50 million, but he failed to establish himself under coaches Thiago Motta and Igor Tudor, leading to his exclusion from the team's plans.
Despite Juventus's desire to sell the player outright this summer, the option of a loan with a purchase option has become a strong solution to rid themselves of his high contract.
Journalist Gianluca Di Marzio noted that negotiations between Juventus and Nottingham Forest are ongoing, while Ekrem Konur revealed that Aston Villa may request to loan their former player to revive his form, at the same time that Fenerbahçe has inquired about the player's situation.
It is worth mentioning that Douglas Luiz participated in 27 official matches wearing the Juventus jersey during his first season, without scoring or assisting any goals, and he started only 6 matches.
