The Brazil international has long been admired by the Gunners, who are said to have made an attempt to recruit him in the summer of 2022, but Villa decided not to sell at that time.
The 26-year-old midfielder has established himself as a key member of Villa’s midfield under Unai Emery, and he turned in a remarkable season in 2023–24, scoring 10 goals and dishing out 10 assists in all competitions.
The Mirror claims that the Villans are thinking of selling Luiz for about £50 million since they have to follow the Premier League’s sustainability and profitability regulations.
According to the report, Villa’s finances have improved significantly now that they have qualified for the Champions League next season, but they still need to balance player sales and new additions to stay out of trouble.
Premier League teams under pressure to adhere to the league’s rules regarding Profit and Sustainability have until June 30 to manage their financial affairs.
If the Villans were to get the rumoured asking price for the Brazilian, it would mean a substantial profit for the team, especially as Luiz only joined the Birmingham based club for £15 million.

According to reports, Premier League clubs have approved the introduction of a development plan that will curb spending beginning with the 2025–2026 season.
The spending cap proposals were approved by 16 teams, and their goal is to keep the gap between the Premier League’s lower-half teams and its financial titans from growing.
Nevertheless, a report from BBC Sport claims that three teams vying for European football—Manchester United, Manchester City, and Aston Villa—are thought to have voted against the proposal.
