On 1 August, he was loaned to La Liga side Girona FC for his first season with the club. Douglas Luiz made his debut for the Catalans on 26 August 2017, replacing Portu in a 1–0 home win against Málaga CF.
On 31 August 2018, Douglas Luiz was loaned to Girona again due to the UK Home Office denying him a work permit.

Douglas Luiz signed for Aston Villa on 25 July 2019, subject to a work permit. His work permit was granted and he officially became a Villa player on 7 August. On 17 August, Luiz scored his first goal for Villa against AFC Bournemouth in a 2–1 defeat. In August 2022, Luiz scored directly from a corner in the third round of the 2022–23 English League Cup against Bolton Wanderers, and repeated the feat the following week in a Premier League match against Arsenal.
In October 2022, following rumors of transfer interest from Arsenal following the end of the transfer window – Luiz agreed a new “long-term” contract with Aston Villa. On 23 May 2023, Luiz was named Supporter’s Player of the Season and Player’s Player of the Season at the club’s end-of-season awards. In the 2023-24 season, he managed to register ten goals and ten assists in 53 appearances across all competitions.

On 30 June 2024, Douglas Luiz joined Serie A side Juventus for a fee of €50 million plus €1.5 million in add-ons, signing a five-year contract with the Italian club. As part of a separate transaction, Samuel Iling-Junior and Enzo Barrenechea joined Aston Villa on permanent deals. The transfer was partly attributed to Aston Villa’s need to comply with the Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR), which forced them to sell one of their key players. His debut for the club came in a 2–2 draw against Stade Brestois 29 as a 62nd-minute substitute. He registered an assist for Danilo’s 72nd-minute goal to make the score 2-1 in favor of Juventus.
