Arsenal told not to sign £100m target
Emmanuel Petit has told Arsenal in no uncertain terms to not sign Douglas Luiz after reports suggested he could cost as much as £100m.
Speaking about a potential transfer to compare.bet, he said:
“£100m is a lot of money, I really like Douglas Luiz but is he worth £100m?
“It’s crazy money. I’m not sure it’s a good idea for Arsenal to go straight on the market and buy Luiz for that much. I think he’s injured too much and the way that Aston Villa are playing, he probably doesn’t want to leave.
“If I was Douglas Luiz I’d be very excited to have an offer from Arsenal, but I’d think straight away, I’d look at my current teammates and say, ‘We are second place in the table and only one point off Arsenal. What happens if we do something very special.’
“We can imagine Aston Villa playing in the Champions League now. When you leave in the middle of a season, you have to be very careful.
“When you’re playing at the best level with your current club, it’s a very big risk to change and go to another club.
“I can understand it’s very exciting to join Arsenal, but the timing, I don’t think it’s good for him.”
