Douglas Luiz signed a new contract at Aston Villa because he 'loves' his colleagues and feels 'comfortable' at the midlands club.
The Brazil international, 24, was the subject of multiple deadline day offers from Premier League leaders Arsenal - which were rejected by Villa - and his previous contract was due to expire in June, potentially allowing him to join the Gunners on a free transfer next summer.
Yet Luiz has decided to commit his future to Villa by putting pen to paper on a new "long-term" contract. The defensive midfielder has been a crucial player for Villa since he was signed from Manchester City in the summer of 2019, playing 111 Premier League games.
