"Aston Villa have brought Douglas Luiz back on loan for the remainder of the season, after Juventus terminated his temporary stay with Nottingham Forest. Luiz previously spent five years with Villa after arriving from Manchester City in July 2019, following the club's promotion back to the Premier League. He helped Villa re-establish themselves in the top flight and become regular contenders for European football, culminating in a fourth-placed finish in 2023-24."
"Luiz was voted Player of the Season by both his team-mates and Villa's supporters after that campaign, having scored 10 goals and provided 10 assists in all competitions. However, he subsequently departed for Juventus in a deal worth over €50m (£43m), with Villa reportedly needing a sale in order to comply with the Premier League's profit and sustainability regulations."
"Luiz struggled for game time in Turin and was loaned out to Forest at the start of this season, appearing 14 times across all competitions before Juve cut his loan at the City Ground short.
