THE BIGGER PICTURE: Luiz's future at Villa was up in the air earlier this summer after he held talks with Milan, but it now appears that he will stay with Steven Gerrard's side for the 2022-23 campaign. The Brazilian's contract is due to expire next June, but the club may decide to offer him fresh terms if he can continue to add an extra spark in the final third.
