Man Utd willing to hand Juventus stunning profit on Douglas Costa sale

Manchester United are willing to hand Juventus a massive profit on the sale of Douglas Costa.

Corriere dello Sport says United are willing to part ways with €85m (£75m) to get the Brazilian.

Juventus paid Bayern Munich £5m for a season-long loan but now have a £35m option to buy the winger, which they are likely to take up after his impressive season.

United would be prepared to pay more than double the agreed fee though, should Juventus not take up the option to sign him on a permanent deal.

However it is possible Juventus won't take up the option as they look to strengthen the squad in other areas with a limited budget.
