Nottingham Forest are pushing to sign Juventus midfielder Douglas Luiz on loan with an option to buy, which could become an obligation to purchase under certain conditions.
Nottingham Forest have resumed their interest in signing Douglas Luiz from Juventus, with the Premier League side open to negotiating a loan deal with an option to buy. This potential transfer is valued by Juventus at €40 million. The English club had previously enquired about Douglas Luiz in the January transfer window, and now they’re pushing to secure his services.
The proposed deal would involve a season-long loan with an obligation to buy under certain conditions, which aligns with Forest’s strategy to strengthen their squad for the upcoming season.
Douglas Luiz, a former Aston Villa star, is not part of Juventus coach Igor Tudor’s plans, despite resuming training with the team after missing the first few days of pre-season.
With Edu Gaspar, the club’s sporting director, pushing for his arrival, Forest believes Luiz would be a valuable addition to their squad.
While Juventus is looking for a permanent transfer, Nottingham Forest is more inclined to discuss an initial loan deal. The figures behind the potential deal are still unclear, but Forest is reportedly willing to make a significant investment to sign Luiz.
