Following Aston Villa’s victory over Chelsea in September, Douglas Luiz took to social media to subtly criticise Fernando Diniz, the manager of his national team.
Despite his excellent form, he had not been included in the Brazil squad, and he made it quite evident in his post that this had affected him by stating that he was a Brazilian citizen and that he was “calm, calm” about the situation.
Since then, Diniz has called up the Aston Villa midfielder for the most recent international break. In an interview with ESPN Brasil, the player apologised for his outburst on social media.
When questioned, he responded, “It was a little hasty.” I’m not usually a talkative player, but in that particular instance, I truly deserved it. However, not everything occurs in the present era. When things don’t go the way we want them to at work, we can become a little frustrated.
Luiz played a total of 20 minutes, despite being called up to the Brazil squad for the final round of World Cup qualifying. He started the match for eight minutes in the 2-1 loss against Colombia and added another 12 minutes in the 1-0 loss against Argentina.
The Aston Villa player stated he was “happy to be” despite the outcome.
