Liverpool should consider a move for the Juventus ace.
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp will surely be looking to bolster his attacking ranks this summer, regardless of whether they win any silverware this season or not.
The Reds currently have one of the most deadly front-lines in European football, but more competition is required for Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane, if they are to make the jump up to the next level.
Added to that, Mane has been linked with a move to Real Madrid, according to Spanish media outlet El Confidencial, and if the Senegalese ace does leave, the need for another attacking wide player at Liverpool will be even more pressing.
And with this in mind, the Merseyside outfit should consider making a move for Juventus ace Douglas Costa.
The Old Lady are prepared to sell the Brazilian for just €50 million (£43 million) this summer, according to Italian publication Calcio Mercato, and in today’s market, that would surely prove to be appealing for Liverpool.
The 28-year-old is a wonderfully exciting winger. He possesses pace in abundance, and his technical ability is second to none.
Costa’s direct playing style makes him ideally suited to Klopp’s high-octane setup at Anfield, and he would undoubtedly help Liverpool improve upon the potency of their play in the final third.
The Brazilian is also vastly experienced in playing at the very highest level, having spent time with Bayern Munich and now Juve, and he really would be a superb addition for Liverpool this summer, if Klopp does indeed decide to make a move for the winger.
The Reds could face competition from Tottenham, however, with Calcio Mercato reporting that Mauricio Pochettino is keen on signing Costa.
