Nottingham Forest join race to sign Douglas Luiz from Juventus | OneFootball

Nottingham Forest are the latest Premier League side to be linked with a move for struggling Juventus midfielder Douglas Luiz in the January transfer window, according to updates on Wednesday evening.

Despite joining the Bianconeri for a €50m fee in the summer transfer window, the Brazilian has struggled to cement a spot in Thiago Motta’s starting line-up, and could potentially be allowed to leave this month in order to clear up space in the club’s budget for new arrivals.

Several Premier League sides have already expressed an interest in signing the Brazil international this month, including two of his former clubs in Aston Villa and Manchester City.

According to transfer expert Matteo Moretto, Nottingham Forest are the latest side to come forward for the 26-year-old.

Forest are currently enjoying a title-challenging campaign under Nuno Espirito Santo, and currently sit in third place in the Premier League standings, level on points with Arsenal in second and six off Liverpool at the summit.
