Over the past two weeks, West Ham and Everton have repeatedly been mentioned as the key candidates to sign Juventus’ Douglas Luiz. Now, Nottingham Forest have been pulled back into the race for the midfielder.
Gazzetta dello Sport reports today that the Brazilian was been scouted by multiple clubs last season, as Juve look to move him on.
Nottingham Forest and West Ham are said to be the most determined and Everton are slightly behind, with the Bianconeri open to letting him depart on an initial loan deal with an obligation to buy.
The Italian side are considering multiple players as replacements for the 27-year-old , whose final decision is being awaited.
Similar is reported in today’s Corriere dello Sport. They claim that Juve general director Damien Comolli sees the Brazilian’s exit as an important way to earn funds for incomings.
While they do not confirm interest from West Ham, they do report that Nottingham Forest and Everton are keen.
The Old Lady want to earn a fee of €35-€40m from the player’s sale but that is causing problems for suitors, who have not reached that figure yet.
