Manchester City reportedly increase pressure for Douglas Luiz amidst Juventus hurdle for Guardiola.

Manchester City are on the hunt for a new signing to replace the injured Rodri, with Douglas Luiz emerging as a potential target.

Pep Guardiola is reportedly keen on acquiring the Brazilian midfielder, who currently plays for Aston Villa.

According to Tuttosport, Luiz sits at the top of Guardiola’s wishlist for the January transfer window.

The potential move raises questions about how Juventus might respond, as they also have reportedly expressed interest in Luiz.

The Italian club is said to be closely monitoring the situation, though it remains to be seen whether they will make a formal offer.

A source close to the negotiations told Tuttosport, “Juventus are aware of Manchester City’s interest and are considering their position.”

The upcoming months promise to be crucial in determining Douglas Luiz’s next destination.
