Alan Brazil has made the bold claim that he can see Douglas Luiz leaving Aston Villa for Arsenal in a big-money transfer this January.
The Villa midfielder was known to be the subject of bids from the Gunners a couple of years ago, though that deal never worked out, with Villa able to tie the Brazil international down to a new contract.
Arsenal are back in for Luiz again, however, with Fabrizio Romano telling CaughtOffside that the former Manchester City man is a top priority target for Mikel Arteta’s side this winter.
Speaking on talkSPORT, Alan Brazil now expects this move could be a realistic one for January.
“I think if Arsenal came in, this is a good debate this one because Villa are a top, top club,” the pundit said.
“But Arsenal you could say top dogs in London, you could say that.
“They are very strong. I think it would be hard for him if the money came in and Villa said we have had a bit, it’s a lot, do you want to go. I think he would go.”
Arsenal fans will certainly hope this proves accurate as they need cover for Thomas Partey if they are to stand a chance of going all the way in competitions like the Premier League and the Champions League this season.
