Man United 'weighing up Costa bid'

Manchester United are reportedly considering a move for Juventus attacker Douglas Costa at the end of the season.

United will prioritise a move for a new central defender in this summer's transfer window, but it is thought that a new winger will also arrive ahead of the 2019-2020 campaign.

According to Calciomercato, Juve are open to offers for Costa, which has attracted the attention of United.

The Brazil international 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 2018-19 campaign.

The 28-year-old has struggled for form this season, however, managing just one goal and two assists in 17 Serie A appearances for the Old Lady.

Costa, who is capable of playing in a number of different positions in the final third of the field, is also believed to be interesting Chelsea.
