Aston Villa star warming to Man City and Arsenal as title rivals are turning his head before January

Premier League elite clubs like Arsenal and his former team Manchester City are apparently showing interest in Douglas Luiz, to the point where he has supposedly had his head turned.

 

For the previous few seasons, Luiz has been among Villa’s top players. The creative spark that glowed under earlier

regimes appears to have fully ignited under Unai Emery’s direction.

 

This season, Luiz has been one of the Premier League’s most remarkable players with five goals and three assists.

Villa finished third in the league at Christmas thanks to that. Nonetheless,

Arsenal and Man City, two of the team’s title rivals, are showing interest in him.

 

Villa has made it clear that they would not sell, even if they receive an offer

greater than £100 million. The recent transfers of Declan Rice, Moises Caicedo,

and Enzo Fernandez are the reason for that price tag.

But while Villa don’t want to lose their star in the middle of the season, and

likely not at all, he apparently does not see things the same way.

 

Indeed, according to Football Insider, Luiz ‘has had his head turned’ by interest from the Premier League’s elite. While he

is interested, it’s also stated he ‘has no plans to force a move away’.

 

That said, the move still seems very unlikely, with Villa not wanting to sell,

and Luiz having no problems with remaining unless they accept a bid,

which isn’t going to happen any time soon.

 

It sounds from the report as if Luiz wold simply not say no to the move to either

Arsenal or City if he was offered it. That does not mean he’s actively interested.

 

It would be difficult to get anybody to say no to those sides, though, so it’s not a unique position.

 

The draw of City is a huge one for any player, given they’ve won the league the last three years on the spin. What’s more,

Luiz used to be owner by City, but never played a game, so them wanting him

now shows he’s ready to make the step they didn’t feel he was previously.

In any case, it’s likely he’ll remain at Villa for the foreseeable future.
