Juventus 'make Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus a major transfer target... and are prepared to offer Douglas Costa' to entice Pep Guardiola to the negotiating table

Juventus are reportedly targeting Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus - and may attempt to convince the Premier League giants to sell by offering Douglas Costa in exchange.

29-year-old winger Costa featured under Pep Guardiola at Bayern Munich during his spell in Bavaria, but has largely fallen out of favour in Turin this season.

According to Calciomercato, Juventus believe that Jesus would prove the ideal partner for Cristiano Ronaldo and hope to seal the ambitious deal by offloading Costa in the other direction.
