According to reports, Arsenal are still interested in signing Brazil international Douglas Luiz from Premier League rivals Aston Villa.
– were seriously interested in signing Luiz during the 2022 summer transfer window as they submitted a couple of bids for the midfielder.The 25-year-old has shone under Unai Emery at the start of this season as he has scored five goals in nine Premier League games. He netted a brace on Sunday as the Villans beat West Ham 4-1 at Villa Park.
“Douglas Luiz had another brilliant game for Aston Villa in their win over West Ham yesterday, and I can tell you that there are many top clubs monitoring the Brazilian midfielder,” Romano told Caught Offside.“Firstly, however, it’s important to say that Villa did a great job to extend his contract recently – he has an important salary now, and he’s an important player in Unai Emery’s side.
“Let’s see what happens in January and if Arsenal will decide to move for a player in that position or not, but Douglas Luiz is certainly a player who remains appreciated at the Emirates Stadium, as well as many other top clubs around Europe. He could be one to watch in 2024, but Villa won’t make it easy to sign their star players, of course.”
“Another player being linked with Arsenal is Sacha Boey, but I wouldn’t get too excited just yet. We see this link since he joined Stellar agency in the summer, but he’s never been close to a move,” Romano added.
