Juventus Evaluates Penalty for Douglas Luiz’s Social Media Rant

Juventus is displeased with Brazilian midfielder Douglas Luiz’s recent social media outburst. The club is considering fining the player for violating their ethical code following his critical Instagram post.

Luiz, who joined Juventus in summer 2024, expressed frustration over his lack of playing time. He questioned why he hasn’t started consecutive matches despite his Premier League success and full preseason participation. The midfielder also alluded to unusual injuries affecting his performance.

This incident further strains the already tenuous relationship between Luiz and Juventus. His future in Turin remains uncertain, even with a contract running until 2028.

Premier League clubs are monitoring the situation. Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest have shown interest, with Newcastle potentially exploring a swap deal involving Sandro Tonali. Nottingham Forest could offer Luiz a more central role in their project.

As the situation unfolds, it’s clear that Luiz’s outburst has complicated his position at Juventus and may accelerate discussions about his future with the club.
