Juventus Ready To Snatch Manchester United Target With €25m Bid

Juventus have tabled an opening bid of €25 million for Bayern Munich winger Douglas Costa, according to Italian reports.

The 26-year-old winger has been tipped to leave the Allianz Arena this summer, with reports that Bayern Munich are ready to cash out on the Brazilian attacker in a bid to create space for new arrivals.

Reports in Italian outlet La Stampa claim that Juventus have identified Costa as one of their targets this summer and have made an opening bid for him.

The winger had earlier revealed he could fancy a move away from the Allianz Arena this summer, sparking interest from several clubs in Europe.

Manchester United are understood to be considering a move for Brazilian who is known for his accurate dribbling skills, but has failed to impress at Bayern.

The Red Devils have also been linked with a move for Renato Sanches who has become surplus to requirements under Carlo Ancelotti despite joining them for €35million just last summer.

Ancelotti is believed to be frustrated at his side’s performance in the Champions League this season, and will move for better signings this summer in a bid to improve their chances of doing well in Europe next season and has identified a number of targets to bolster his squad.
