Shock reports in the media have arrived this weekend claiming that Chelsea are very much interested in bringing Douglas Luiz to the club until the end of the season.
Luiz is currently on loan at Nottingham Forest where has made eight Premier League appearances so far this season, but CHELSEA are now seeking to hijack that loan and bring Luiz to Stamford Bridge to provide them with additional cover in central midfield
Talks between Chelsea and Juventus are said to have been opened, and Luiz is open to the move, but journalist Fabrizio Romano insists the Blues will only move forward with the deal if there is no obligation to buy the midfielder in the summer.
‘Chelsea have made contact with Juventus to ask about Douglas Luiz,’ Romano said on his YouTube channel. ‘So now club-to-club talks are starting but let’s see because it’s still initial conversations.
‘Chelsea Enzo, Moi Caicedo and Andrey Santos but they want one more and Douglas Luiz on a loan deal from Juventus is a concrete possibility.
‘The player is open to joining Chelsea, so now it depends on CHELSEA and Juventus to try and reach an agreement. Chelsea are only interested in a loan deal, Chelsea don’t want any obligation-to-buy element.
‘They don’t want to be forced to buy Douglas Luiz in the summer. If they can do a deal on loan for the next six months, Chelsea would be happy to proceed. Otherwise, if these conditions are not right Chelsea will leave the conversation.’
IcFootballnews Says…
If CHELSEA really wants Luiz, if they believe that he will add to the squad, then they will get this transfer deal done. But the fact that the midfield at Chelsea is stocked, it does not make sense for the Brazilian to make this switch.
If he is barely playing where he is now, a move to Chelsea will not help that is for sure.
