Arsena has made Douglas Luiz a top target in January 2024, the Gunners are willing to exchange players in the hope of getting the Brazilian star.
Recently, Thomas Partey has been continuously absent from competition due to injury. Currently, this player is said to be out for the rest of 2023. Mohamed Elneny also did not play much after a long period of injury treatment, which forced Declan Rice and Jorginho to constantly play.
To have more good options in midfield, coach Mikel Arteta wants Arsenal to recruit Aston Villa’s Douglas Luiz in January 2024. Previously in January this year, the Gunners also announced their desire to have this midfielder, but they refused. Their offer of £25 million was rejected.
Arsenal really wants to recruit midfielder Douglas Luiz
Now, Luiz is one of Aston Villa’s most important players. He is one of the best midfielders in the Premier League, making an important contribution to helping Unai Emery’s team currently rank 4th in the rankings.
Arsenal will have to spend a large amount of money to hope that the home team at Villa Park will release their star. Having spent nearly 200 million pounds to upgrade the squad in the summer of 2023, it is very difficult for the London team to spend 70 to 80 million pounds to buy the Brazilian player in January this year.
Arsenal wants to include young star Emile Smith Rowe in the terms of the deal to convince Aston Villa to agree to release the Brazilian midfielder. The Gunners want to use the English player plus 30 to 35 million pounds to hope Aston Villa releases their star.
