Chelsea are the latest club to ask about a loan for Douglas Luiz but Juventus want a substantial fee. A move from is considered unlikely at this stage, with the Blues unwilling to tie themselves to a fee or commit to an obligation to buy. Chelsea have considered Luiz following injuries to midfield duo Enzo Fernandez and Romeo Lavia.

Mail Sport reported earlier this month that Manchester City were among Premier League clubs to have been offered the former Aston Villa midfielder. Luiz had previously been on Man City's books between 2017 and 2019 without making a single appearance due to work permit issues.

Fulham, Nottingham Forest and Manchester United were also offered Luiz, but other Premier League clubs are understood to be considering a move.

Chelsea have decisions to make on several unwanted players during the January window. Juventus are ideally looking to recoup the £21million they paid to Aston Villa in the summer, but may soften their stance in the final days of the window. Luiz, who plays for the same club as his girlfriend, Alisha Lehmann, has played just 13 times for Juventus this season and could already be on his way out of the club.
