Douglas Luiz to make Premier League return?! Juventus midfielder linked with swap deal that would take him to Newcastle and leave partner Alisha Lehmann alone in Turin
Juventus duo Douglas Luiz and Alisha Lehmann could be playing at different clubs next season after the former was linked with a Premier League return.
According to Calciomercato, Newcastle United's Sandro Tonali could head to Juventus and midfielder Luiz could go the opposite way as part of a swap deal this summer.
Luiz has made 22 appearances for Juventus since his £42 million ($55m) move less than a year ago but just six of those have been in the starting XI. As a result, he may well be minded to seek pastures new. It is unclear if Newcastle would also want to sign Lehmann; their women's side play in the second-tier.
