Douglas Luiz Linked to Aston Villa Return After Short Juventus Stay with Alisha Lehmann

Douglas Luiz expected to return back to Aston Villa through the January Transfer Window, as his struggles in Juventus continued. Reports say he was benched despite being fit and available to play in the latest fixture.

Douglas Luiz and Alisha Lehmann completed a couple transfers to the Juventus team. This transfer took place in the summers of 2024 but it is expected that Douglas might be moving on to another team, following his struggles as the midfielder.

Luiz, who is an international player for Brazil, gave a farewell to the Premier League, when he confirmed his switch to Turin from Aston Villa. Alisha Lehmann also came down the same path, and she has been enjoying her time in Italy since then.

But this cannot be said for Douglas Luiz, as he has been struggling to perform well in Serie A. At times he has suffered with injury related issues and unfortunately, he also picked up a habit to concede penalties for his team. Due to this reason, he was also benched in the latest game where he was told to have another injury which was being nursed.

Some reports even claim that Luiz was completely fit to play and available for Juventus in the latest fixture. But the boss, Thiago Motta did not choose him to play for the team, due to which he might be looking forward to the January Transfer Window.
