Manchester City FC transfer news: Pep Guardiola plots £88million move for Juventus star Douglas Costa

Manchester City are lining up a huge £88million bid for Juventus star Douglas Costa.

Despite surging to the Premier League title with a record points haul, City are expected to be active during the summer window.

And, according to Italian outlet Sport Mediaset, talented winger Costa could be one of the first big names to arrive.

The Brazilian arrived at Juve 12 months ago on a season-long loan following two mixed years at Bayern Munich.

During his first season in Serie A, he managed 31 appearances but only 18 of them came from the start.
