Juventus set asking price on Manchester United top transfer target

Juventus have put an asking price on Douglas Costa, who reportedly attracts interest from Manchester United. The Brazilian is not in the plans of new Juve boss Andrea Pirlo and, along with Sami Khedira, is available for transfer. Manchester United have long been linked with a move for the former Bayern Munich man and this may finally be the time for them to secure his signature. According to Italian publication TuttoSport report that Juventus are looking for just €20m (£18m) for the 29-year-old as Pirlo looks to reshape his squad after the sacking of Maurizio Sarri. The Serie A champions paid double that amount for Costa in 2018 after spending a season on loan at the club, but he has not had much of an impact since making the signing permanent. Costa played 47 games in all competitions during his loan spell, scoring six goals, but in the following two seasons has managed just 25 and 29 appearances respectively. Source- Metro
