Manchester United 'in bidding war for Douglas Costa'

Man United 'in bidding war for Douglas Costa'

Manchester United will reportedly face competition from Paris Saint-Germain for Juventus attacker Douglas Costa in this summer's transfer window.

Costa scored six times during a loan spell at Juve last term before completing a permanent move to the Italian champions from Bayern Munich ahead of the current season.

The 28-year-old has only managed one Serie A goal this term, but he has not featured in Italy's top flight since the start of February, with a hamstring injury keeping him on the sidelines.

United continue to be linked with a move for the versatile attacker as the 20-time English champions prepare to improve their side this summer.

According to Tuttosport, though, PSG have a 'concrete' interest in the South American, with the French champions currently preparing to make an offer.

Costa played close to 200 games for Shakhtar Donetsk ahead of a move to Bayern in July 2015.
