Luiz rejoins Villa - have your say
- Published
Aston Villa have announced the re-signing of Douglas Luiz on loan from Juventus.
The 27-year-old left Villa in the summer of 2024 to join the Italian club for a fee of £42.5m, but has spent the first half of this season on loan with Nottingham Forest.
Luiz made 204 appearances between 2019 and 2024 for Villa, but he has played just eight Premier League games for Forest this season after suffering with a thigh problem.
Villa boss Unai Emery was looking to bolster his midfield options, with captain John McGinn out for up to two months with a knee issue and Boubacar Kamara expected to miss the rest of the season with a knee injury.
Another Villa midfielder, Youri Tielemans, is also set for a period on the sidelines after he came off injured at Newcastle on Sunday.
Villa fans, what do you make of this transfer? Happy to see Luiz return and is there still more work to be done this window?
