Douglas Luiz, the Brazilian midfielder, has successfully negotiated personal terms with Juventus, paving the way for his transfer from Aston Villa. In exchange, Aston Villa is set to receive Weston McKennie, Samuel Iling Jr, and a cash addition of €20 million.
Aston Villa has agreed to the terms proposed by Juventus, which includes both player exchanges and the additional fee. This agreement follows a series of negotiations between the two clubs, aiming to secure benefits on both sides of the deal.
Weston McKennie, the American midfielder currently with Juventus, has expressed a positive outlook towards moving to Aston Villa. However, he is yet to finalize the details regarding his departure from the Italian club. Once these are settled, the transfer is expected to be completed.
Samuel Iling Jr, another key part of the deal, had previously shown interest in moving to Aston Villa, which aligns with the current developments in the swap deal.
This strategic move by both clubs follows recent discussions and approvals for the swap deal, indicating a mutual interest in reshaping their squads ahead of the upcoming season.
