Douglas Luiz has begun making a serious impact at Juventus. His impressive performance in the Champions League against PSV followed a strong display as a substitute against Como.
If there were any doubts about his ability to deliver, the Brazilian midfielder has now provided clear and promising answers. For the second time since joining Juventus, the 1998-born player played the full 90 minutes, signaling that he is finally climbing the club’s hierarchy.
“You haven’t seen anything yet from him; I’m happy that he’s finally feeling good.” These words from Thiago Motta after the match leave no room for doubt about the coach’s confidence in Douglas Luiz.
The trust in the Brazilian is absolute, and there is strong belief that he could become the key to Juventus’ midfield. His performances against Como and PSV serve as compelling evidence.
In his full 90-minute display against PSV, Douglas Luiz had 61 touches with a remarkable 94% passing accuracy. He completed two long passes and registered a key pass, while also winning four out of five duels.
With performances like these, Douglas Luiz is proving he has what it takes to take control of Juventus’ midfield.
