South American star ‘is interested’ in completing January move to Arsenal
Aston Villa star Douglas Luiz is very interested in joining Arsenal in the January transfer window – it has been claimed
Mikel Arteta got the full backing of that ArsenalFC board over the course of the transfer window and honestly – signed some players that have made a real difference to the quality of the squad
They are sitting top of the Premier League – and there is a strong feeling that they could push on to even challenge for that title by the end of the season
But Arteta knew that he needed to add some more meat to the squad on deadline day and made a move to try and sign Aston Villa star Luiz – who is regarded very highly in the Premier League
However – the move failed to materialise and, in the end, – Luiz stayed put – but CBS reporter Ben Jacobs has opened up and claimed that Luiz is interested in making a move to the Emirates
What has been said?
Jacobs told GIVEMESPORT: “I think he is a player that Arsenal really want and it wouldn’t remotely surprise me if a third bid is going to be tabled for Luiz, especially with Thomas Partey’s injury issues.
“The bid will be less, so it’s not a continuation of previous negotiations. It’s brand new, based on form and based on time.
“All of that work and effort that went into the failed pursuit over the summer will only really have a bearing because the player’s head has been turned and he is very much open to the move.”
