Douglas Luiz, a Brazilian midfielder for Aston Villa, recently revealed that he used to idolize a player at Manchester City while growing up and watching the Premier League. Although Luiz was at City before joining Villa in 2019, he has found success at his new club. Despite speculation about a potential return to City, Luiz has impressively performed at Villa Park, while Rodri has taken on the role of City’s defensive midfielder.

In a recent interview, Luiz named fellow Brazilian midfielder Fernandinho as his Premier League idol. He praised Fernandinho for his experience and the help he provided when Luiz arrived in England. Luiz also mentioned other Brazilian midfielders he admires, such as Andreas Pereira and Bruno Guimaraes. With Hargreaves suggesting City may try to re-sign Luiz as an understudy to Rodri, it is clear that Luiz has made a positive impact in the Premier League.

Fernandinho, a former captain of Manchester City, is considered one of the best Brazilian players to have played in England. His success and impact on the game have made him an idol for future Brazilian players watching the Premier League. Luiz’s admiration for Fernandinho reflects the respect and influence the veteran midfielder has had on his fellow countrymen in the world of football. As Luiz continues to excel at Aston Villa, his idolization of Fernandinho serves as a testament to the impact experienced players can have on those they inspire.
