Leeds receive boost in the race to sign Douglas Costa

German giants Bayern Munich have no interest in keeping Douglas Costa beyond this season, according to reports from Kicker.

Costa joined the Bundesliga champions on loan from Juventus this summer. However, Bayern have no intention to make his loan deal a permanent one.

His decision to join Bayern came as a big surprise. Bayern already boast two of the finest young wingers in Kingsley Coman and Serge Gnabry. On top of that, they signed Leroy Sane as well from Manchester City on a big-money deal.

Costa, who has made just three starts in Bundesliga, is unwanted at Turin, and the Old Lady are looking to offload him in the summer.
