Exclusive: Juve in advanced talks with Brazilian star
Our transfer pundit Fabrizio Romano has exclusively learned that Juventus’ first meeting with the player’s agent was very positive. Douglas Costa was offered € 6 million-a-year and Juve have also made an opening bid for Bayern Munich.
The Bavarians have demanded € 50 million, whilst the Old Lady has tabled a € 40 million bid. Negotiations are at an advanced stage and an agreement between the two parties could be found halfway. Meantime, negotiations between the two parties are still ongoing.
The player’s agent Mendoza is in Italy and intermediaries Giovanni and Giacomo Branchini are working alongside Juve and Bayern to help them to reach an agreement.
