Spurs keen on Costa?

Tottenham Hotspur enter race to sign Juventus attacker

02 April 2019 - 11:50

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly joined the likes of Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United in the pursuit of Juventus' Douglas Costa ahead of the summer.

  • Chelsea ready new contract for star midfielder
  • Chelsea make first move to sign Xabi Alonso
  • The 28-year-old signed for the Bianconeri on a permanent basis from Bayern Munich last summer following a good debut season with the club on loan.

    However, he has struggled to produce a similar level of performances with just one goal from 17 league outings and of late, he has missed regular action due to a hamstring injury.

    According to Tuttosport, United and Les Parisiens are keeping tabs on the Brazilian attacker, who could be prepared to push for a fresh challenge away from the Turin giants.

    The publication adds that Spurs could emerge as surprise contenders alongside the duo after going through an entire year without strengthening the first-team squad.

    Juventus are currently said to value Costa in the &pound60m range and that could potentially prove a stumbling block for Spurs, who may work on a restricted budget amid their stadium debt.
