Bayern Munich winger Douglas Costa has hinted that he would be open to a Premier League challenge as he is not entirely content at the Allianz Arena.

  • The Brazil international joined the Bavarian giants from Shakhtar Donetsk in the summer of 2015 and was part of the side that won a domestic double last season.

    However, with Carlo Ancelotti at the helm this term, the attacker has been restricted to just eight league starts, and this has urged him to consider a potential move elsewhere in the summer.

    While there have been multiple offers from the Chinese Super League, Costa insists that a switch to England would be at the top of his wishlist.

    "When the season is over, we will sit down and analyse everything," he told German publication Bild. "We've got a few million-strong offers from China and also from big clubs from Europe

    "I don't completely feel happy here, but we will soon find a solution. England is one of the biggest leagues in the world – fantastic."

    Costa, who is contracted to Bayern Munich until 2020, is currently valued at around £25m.
