Munich's "Bayern" director Karl-Heinz Rummenigge confirmed that Douglas Costa will officially join Turin's "Juventus" next summer. The attacking midfielder was loaned to the "bianconeri" team for 6 million euros, with Italians paying an additional 40 million for the final purchase of his contract. However, despite the significant transfer fee, the Brazilian has not yet secured a spot in Juventus' starting lineup. "Douglas Costa joined Juventus last summer on loan," said Rummenigge. "He will definitely strengthen Juventus next year for 46 million euros." So far, Costa has played 16 games in all competitions this season, scoring one goal and providing four assists.
