Leeds United have officially completed the signing of Brazilian midfielder Douglas Luiz from Juventus in a major summer coup. The 26-year-old, known for his strength, vision, and Premier League experience, signed a long-term deal at Elland Road earlier today, with the club unveiling him in a “DONE DEAL” announcement.
After a mixed spell at Juventus, Luiz was keen on a return to English football, and Leeds moved quickly to secure his signature. The Whites are believed to have agreed a fee in the region of £30 million, fending off interest from rival Premier League sides including Manchester United.
Luiz, who made a name for himself at Aston Villa before moving to Italy, is seen as the midfield general Leeds need as they prepare for life back in the Premier League under Daniel Farke. His arrival brings steel, composure, and technical quality to the centre of the pitch—qualities that Farke believes will be crucial for survival and long-term progression.
Speaking to club media, Luiz said:
“Leeds is a historic club with big ambitions. I’m excited to be part of this project and I can’t wait to play at Elland Road in front of these passionate fans.”
With this marquee addition, Leeds United have sent a clear message—they’re not just back in the Premier League, they’re here to compete.
