Juventus wants transfer target to play their first match of the season
Juventus wants to speed up signing Filip Kostic and have him in their squad for their first league game of the season against Sassuolo. The winger has been the subject of transfer interest from them since the end of last season and the Bianconeri want to finish their transfer business soon enough. Kostic was in stunning form as Eintracht Frankfurt won the Europa League last season. He has serious interest from West Ham as well, and the English club is just as keen to sign him as Juve is. However, a report on La Gazzetta Dello Sport claims the Bianconeri is making serious moves to get him on their books soon. They now want to complete the transfer before their first league game of the season. Juve FC Says Kostic will add more directness and threat to our game if he joins us. Because of the signing of Angel di Maria, some fans think we dont need him anymore. However, they are two different players and both of them can unlock matches in different ways for us. Meanwhile, we would still need to make more signings even when he joins us. The current Bianconeri team lacks depth in certain areas and bolstering the squad will give us a better chance at winning trophies.
?Report: Juventus to blow West Ham away to sign extraordinary Ł16m target
Photo by Srdjan Stevanovic/Getty Images Juventus will now reportedly increase their transfer offer for Eintracht Frankfurt star Filip Kostic, with the Serie A side now in pole position to sign the Bundesliga attacker over West Ham, who have been chasing the forward. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the Italian giants will look to match West Hams offer for the Serbian international, with the report stating Kostic is eager to sign for Juventus despite strong interest from David Moyes side in recent weeks. Kostic played a huge role last season in Frankfurts UEFA Europa League triumph, but with one year left remaining on his contract, the German side are open to cashing in on the 29-year-old winger this summer, with previous reports stating that the Bundesliga star could leave for as much as Ł16m. West Ham have been in talks with Frankfurt for Kostic for some time, however, as per Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus interest has peaked the attacker, and the former Hamburg star is now keen to move to Turin, where he will play UEFA Champions League football for the first time in his career. Lauded by former Frankfurt director Fredi Bobic as an extraordinary player, Kostic is ready for a big move after being one of Eintrachts best players in recent years, and whilst West Ham and the Premier League would have been an upgrade on the Bundesliga, theres no denying that Juventus is too good an opportunity to turn down. With Massimilano Allegri eager to bring the Scudetto back to Turin, Kostic could play a big role in Juventus reclaiming the Serie A title, and with Champions League football on offer, the Serbian attacker could achieve a lot more than if he was to sign for West Ham.
