Nottingham Forest agree deal to sign Douglas Luiz from Juventus

Nottingham Forest have agreed a deal to sign Douglas Luiz from Juventus. The move will see the 27-year-old Brazil international move on loan with an obligation to buy based on the number of games he plays for the Premier League club. Forest also hold the option to make the transfer permanent for a fee in the region of €30million in case he doesn't appear in the required amount of matches. Advertisement The East Midlands club have been extremely active in the market over recent days with deals secured for Omari Hutchinson, James McAtee and Arnaud Kalimuendo. That business followed the club-record move for Dan Ndoye from Bologna earlier in the window while the pursuit of Rico Lewis from Manchester City is continuing. Jair Cunha and Igor Jesus have also arrived from Botafogo, while goalkeeper Angus Gunn was signed on a free transfer. Luiz joined Juventus last summer from Aston Villa on a five-year deal worth €50million (£42.3m; $53.6m, plus add-ons) as Villa sought to avoid breaching Premier League profitability and sustainability rules (PSR). The Brazil international has made 27 appearances since of which just six were starts, and only three in the league. Manchester City were interested in signing Luiz on loan in January, as reported by The Athletic at the time, but Juventus' preference was either to offload the midfielder with a sale or a loan with an obligation to buy and a deal never materialised.

Private housing rents in London edged lower in July for the first time since 2021 when the UK was emerging from Covid restrictions, a sign that the capital's cost-of-living crisis is starting to ease, according to official data. They fell 0.1% on average to £2,250 ($3,036) per month following three months of near-stagnation, Land Registry figures published Wednesday by the Office for National Statistics show. London rents last declined in July 2021.
