Something is definitely afoot with regards Douglas Luiz at Villa.
I had heard we were inclined to bring him back at the £25m buyback clause which ends this summer.
Villa already value the player at £40m and I suspect we are just posturing about bringing him back and we are leveraging some of the difference against a discount for Grealish.
Similar to leveraging the sell on clause we have on Sancho, although we can let that ride if Haaland does have a buyout clause.
Dortmund can chum the waters but Haaland and his dad know the contract.
Laporte has piped down, thankfully.
