Tottenham Hotspur are eyeing a move for a Juventus midfielder, who is keen to leave the Allianz Stadium, and they have considered using one of their players in a potential swap or part-exchange deal.
It has been widely reported that signing a central midfielder is one of Thomas Frank’s priorities this summer ahead of his first season in charge of Tottenham.
It turns out that they might turn their attention to a Serie A star, who the Lilywhites were credited with an interest during the last transfer window.
Back in January, it was reported that Tottenham explored the possibility of bringing Douglas Luiz back to England, and the North Londoners have just received some good news regarding the former Aston Villa star.
Tottenham have explored a swap deal for Douglas Luiz
TBR Football report that Luiz is keen to return to the Premier League, just a year after swapping Villa Park for Juventus.
Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United have both held talks with the Bianconeri regarding a deal for the 27-year-old.
It is alleged that the possibility of a swap deal has been discussed, with Yves Bissouma being one of the players offered to the Serie A giants.
Luiz is now ‘anxious’ to return to England and he believes he still has a lot to offer in the Premier League after struggling for regular game time at the Allianz Stadium.
Other Premier League clubs also want Luiz
TBR Football say that the possibility of Villa looking to re-sign Luiz cannot be ruled out, although Unai Emery’s men have more pressing needs to address at the moment.
Everton, Fulham, Nottingham Forest and West Ham have also expressed an interest in signing the Brazil international this summer.
While Galatasaray and Saudi Pro League clubs are also monitoring the Juventus star, he has his eyes firmly set on a return to the Premier League.
