Douglas Luiz's family were in a celebratory mood, as they gathered together and reacted to his call-up to the national team of Brazil.

Luiz has been menacing for Aston Villa this campaign, contributing his quota to the success of the English side.

Douglas Luiz's mother was seen in the footage holding the FIFA Ultimate Team card of the midfielder, watching and earnestly hoping that her son would be called up to the national team.

The 25-year-old has made 38 appearances for the Villains this campaign, scoring 10 goals and providing 8 assists in all competitions.


Luiz is one of the first names on the team sheet of Unai Emery, and he has truly been impressive this term.

Douglas Luiz joined Aston Villa from Manchester City on July 25, 2019, for a fee of €16.8 million.

The recent call-up for the midfielder to the Brazil national team isn't his first call-up to the Selecao, as he has already made 11 appearances, scoring no goal and providing no assist in all competitions.

However, Luiz's parents were basking in the moment and enjoying the thrill of seeing their son don Brazil's yellow and green shirts, with the blue shorts once again.

Douglas Luiz last played for Brazil on November 22, 2023, in their 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification encounter against Argentina, which ended 1-0 in favor of Le Albiceleste.

Luiz has played for just 4 clubs so far in his career, namely; Vasco da Gama, Manchester City, Girona, and Aston Villa.

The 25-year-old was part of Brazil's 2020 Olympic winning squad that achieved glory in Tokyo, Japan.

Moreover, arguably the most striking thing about Douglas Luiz is that he is dating Alisha Lehmann, who has been tagged by many to be the most beautiful female footballer currently.

The pair were in a relationship from 2021 to 2022, however, reports claimed they went separate ways in 2023.

Luiz and Alisha reunited in 2024 and their relationship has been going amazingly well.

Douglas Luiz was born on May 9, 1998, and the name of his hearty mother in the heartwarming video is Maria Soares.

The name of his father is Edmilson Soares and the former Vasco da Gama man was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Douglas Luiz has three siblings, all male, namely; Daniel, Devison, and Daniele, with the trio all known to be wonderful supporters of their brother.

Anyway, Luiz was last in action for Aston Villa on March 2, 2024, as they crept out of Kenilworth Road, with an edgy 3-2 win over Luton Town.

Douglas Luiz has made 189 appearances for the Villains, scoring 22 goals and providing 22 assists across all competitions.

Brazil play against England and Spain on March 23, 2024, and March 26, 2024, and the midfielder will be keen on playing in both matches.
