According to the news of "TBR Football", Everton intends to introduce Juventus midfielder Douglas Louis, and the two clubs are in talks. Brazil's national team coach and former Everton coach Ancelotti may play a key role in this. Dougla...
Douglas Luis left Villa to play for Serie A last summer, but he failed to replicate his level in the Premier League. Douglas Louis suffered some injuries last season and was often placed on the bench, with a total of 27 appearances for Juventus. Therefore, the Zebras hope to sell him this summer, with the preferred option being a permanent transfer. However, it seems that the possibility of loan is greater, with Everton and Nottingham Forest being the two England teams with clearer interests.
Former Arsenal sporting director Edu currently works at Nottingham Forest and he is very eager to bring Louis to the city stadium. According to TBR Football chief reporter Graeme Bailey, given Ancelotti's relationship with Everton, the Italian coach may push Louis to join Everton and give players some transfer advice. For Louis, he is fighting for a place in the Brazilian national team World Cup next summer.
Bayley explained: "My understanding is that Juventus wants to send Louis away permanently, but they know it is unlikely to happen, so Juventus will likely accept a loan with a buyout option, which may be a mandatory buyout clause, depending on the club's circumstances.
"Spurs are no longer interested in Louis, they chose Palinia. Nottingham Forest sports director Edu likes Louis very much, and Edu wanted to sign him when he was still at Arsenal. Now Edu plays an important role in the forest, and discussions on bringing Louis to the forest are underway. While Nottingham Forest may be eager to add another Brazilian talent, Everton is a team closer to Louis.
"I heard that Luis talked about the future of the players with Ancelotti, and the next season is very important for Luis. We guess he might choose Everton, Ancelotti's former club. I believe Ancelotti has told Luis to go find first-team games, and I think coach An really wants Louis to return to the Premier League, where he's doing very well.
" But the forest is still competing. There are also rumors that the old boss Vera is also interested in Louis - they do like him, but Kamala has just renewed his contract, Tilemans performed well, and the new arrival of Amadou Onana, so Vera is unlikely to make the deal. ”
