Club management has initiated disciplinary proceedings under internal regulations, which means that Luiz will face serious punishment.
The midfielder had a disappointing campaign last season. He made only 27 appearances throughout the year and missed another 20 matches due to injury. Douglas Luiz failed to score a single goal or register an assist during the entire season.
There is interest in the player from several English clubs, and it is very likely that he has already played his final match for Juve. The Italian club has set a €40 million price tag to avoid making a loss on his sale.
