Douglas Luiz, the Brazilian midfielder, has apparently become a key target for Arsenal once again. His performance and potential contribution to the team have evidently caught the attention of the Arsenal management. Aston Villa reportedly places a high value on Luiz, with figures over £100 million being mentioned.

Gibbs’ suggestion of including either Smith Rowe or Nketiah in the deal could be a way for Arsenal to bridge this valuation gap while also providing Aston Villa with valuable player assets.JAMB Portal
