Villa signed Luiz from Manchester City in 2019, with the 26-year-old making 35 Premier League appearances last season.

Across those matches, he scored nine goals and provided five assists from midfield.

He is set to be replaced by Barrenechea, who joined the Old Lady from Swiss side Sion in 2020.

The Argentine midfielder spent last season on loan at Frosinone but was unable to help them avoid relegation from Serie A.
