Chelsea are considering a move for Douglas Luiz, who is on loan at Nottingham Forest from Juventus, to add to their midfield depth. The Brazil international is temporarily with Forest but has only made 13 appearances all season – eight of those coming in the Premier League. Chelsea are now discussing whether to temporarily bring the 27-year-old to Stamford Bridge following setbacks to Romeo Lavia and Dario Essugo. Now, Chelsea may turn to Luiz, who left Aston Villa for Juventus in a £42.3million move in 2024, but he struggled to have an impact in Turin. He has endured his own injury issues, including while on loan at Forest, but does carry Premier League experience.
