Douglas Luiz is Nottingham Forest's Silver Wall. A six-time trophy winner, including an Olympic Gold medal with Brazil, the midfielder brings significant pedigree to the City Ground. Although his season profile is still in an emerging phase, his presence as a defensive anchor provides a sturdy foundation for the squad's central core.
Luiz has featured in 8 matches this campaign, totaling 331 minutes of action. Data identifies him as a true MAGNET in the middle of the pitch, recording 100 touches per 90 minutes with high efficiency. While his primary role is that of a Wall, a Dribbling score of 78 highlights the technical security he provides during a crunch match. He is maintaining a consistent level of performance, though he has been WASTEFUL in the final third as he searches for his first goal involvement of the season.
With a market value of €30M, Luiz remains a high-profile asset for Forest. His ability to dictate the Stakes in the midfield battle will be vital as the club navigates a demanding Premier League calendar and seeks to establish stability in the table.
