Arsenal remains keen to sign the Premier League standout, estimated at £110 million.

Should Douglas Luiz, the accomplished midfielder of Aston Villa, become available, Arsenal remains keen on pursuing a potential transfer. The Brazilian standout has been a standout performer for Unai Emery’s flourishing Aston Villa side throughout this season, emerging as the linchpin in the team’s midfield.

 

Hailing from his days as a Manchester City star, Luiz has consistently been the driving force in Villa’s midfield. Arsenal’s interest in acquiring Luiz has been enduring, with the club expressing their desire since the summer and even earlier. However, Villa has consistently rebuffed any attempts to part ways with the midfielder they secured for £15 million from Manchester City in 2019.

 

Recent reports from Football Transfers affirm that Arsenal’s interest in securing Luiz’s services persists. According to the report, the Brazilian midfielder stands as Arsenal’s primary target for bolstering their midfield ranks. The uncertainty surrounding Thomas Partey’s future at the Emirates Stadium further emphasizes the importance of potentially acquiring Luiz, given his ability to forge a formidable partnership with Arsenal’s record signing, Declan Rice.

 

Partey, the former Atletico Madrid midfielder, has grappled with multiple injury setbacks, rendering him unavailable for crucial moments when Arsenal required his presence. Luiz’s potential collaboration with Declan Rice, signed from West Ham for a substantial £105 million fee in the summer, could prove pivotal for Arsenal’s midfield solidity.

 

Nevertheless, Arsenal’s primary focus in the ongoing transfer window is securing a prolific striker to alleviate their goal-scoring concerns. While the club has been linked with various players such as Ivan Toney, Dusan Vlahovic, and Joshua Zirkzee, financial fair play (FFP) constraints may necessitate player sales before any significant striker acquisition. Among the potential departures this month, Eddie Nketiah is mentioned.

 

Despite the current emphasis on other positions, a prospective move for Luiz in the current transfer window appears improbable. However, if he becomes available in the upcoming summer transfer window, Arsenal is poised to pursue his signature.
