José Mourinho wants to hit a big blow on the summer market. Eager to bring a new centerpiece to his midfielder in Fenerbahçe, the Portuguese coach would have personally targeted Douglas Luiz. The former technician of Roma, now in Türkiye, believes that the Brazilian could bring the balance and the quality that lacks his midfield, despite the presence of Fred or Talisca. According to the Turkish media, Mourinho is ready to play a decisive role to convince the Brazilian international to join Istanbul, with a speech centered on a key role in the sports project of the club.
But the operation promises to be complex. Juventus does not intend to sell off a player bought 51 million euros last summer, despite a mixed season and increasing tensions. In cold with the direction, Douglas Luiz did not show up for the resumption of training, without warning. This behavior, added to his clear desire to leave Turin for a large Premier League club, still tends to relationships a little more. Fenerbahçe would envisage a loan with purchase option, but the old lady does not envisage such a formula. The ball is therefore in the camp of the Special One. Case to follow.
