Arsenal urged to swap £50 million duo and bring Brazilian star to Emirates

Arsenal have been urged to consider swapping Eddie Nketiah and Emile Smith Rowe for Aston Villa’s Douglas Luiz.

It was no secret in the media that ARSENAL were very interested in signing Luiz during the summer window and even made a couple of offers for the player, which was quickly rejected.

Rumours are back in the headlines that Arsenal will make an offer for Luiz once again – in hope that he is interested in making the move to a Champions League club and a side that will challenge for trophies.

He has recently earned a recall to the Brazil squad and there has been alot of speculation that ARSENAL will once again go back in during the January window and make a move for the star.

Reporter Iomie Stanley believes the Brazilian midfielder would help Mikel Arteta’s men regain defensive solidity after dropping from first to fourth in the Prem.

He told icfootballnews: “It’s probably best to go and get someone like a Douglas Luiz.

‘There is a potential deal to be be done for sure, especially as the Brazilian star is open to making the move away from Aston Villa in the summer window.,

“There is Emile Smith Rowe. Eddie (Nketiah). There are other players. There are definitely opportunities for the Gunners board to sell a number of fringe players and bring in a few stars that can make more of a difference.

‘Arsenal have wanted Luiz for a long time – and to be honest – the Gunners are one of the most attractive sides in the Premier League and many players would love the chance to make the move to the Emirates.

‘The transfer window is a few months away – but Luiz is a player that would suit Arsenal.’
