Douglas Luiz has been a figure for Aston Villa since his arrival in 2019. His strong midfield presence and ability to dictate the tempo of play have made him a valuable asset in the Premier League. For Juventus, securing Luiz would be a strategic move to bolster their midfield options, bringing in a player known for his defensive solidity and passing accuracy.
