Wolves have shown interest for Douglas Costa as a possible replacement of Diogo Jota. Talks ongoing between Wolves and the agents of the winger. Costa could leave Juventus: the brazilian is not in Pirlo’s plans
I hope they are going to sign him !

Douglas Costa can be a replacement to whoever bench warmer they have. The guy never got physically in shape at his peak and now he's 30. If there's one league that doesn't suit him, it's the premier league.

I really hope we ship him out this summer. It's now or never.

They play 343 (or 541), Semedo replaces Doherty on right fullback/wingback, Traore will keep playing his right wing role higher up. Jota still needs to be replaced at LW/SS.
True, but in their first two PL matches Traore had to play as a RWB, because they had no one else who could play there. They also have Podence and Neto for the LW position so don't necessarily need anyone else there.

Yeah he had to play wingback because of doherty left and not replaced, with Semedo, he will go up to again, but right side. Jota was pretty damn important for them, Neto is just a young rotation/backup player, and Podence doesnt have the game Jota did. Wolves would be foolish if they dont go out to replace him.

I actually think that Costa’s speed on the counter (assuming he still has the same speed after all these injuries) makes him an ideal Premier League player.

I remember him destroying Tottenham a few years ago. They couldn’t cope with him at all.

So Costa doesn't want to go. LOL! I rather be a bench player at Juve too. It's your own fault even if you can't help being injury prone. It is what it is, go somewhere that you wanted. Good luck, I really was excited when you came here.

He does has speed, but he also pulls a muscle every time he uses it for +45mins per game. Reaching his 30s, you'll see him losing a lot of that speed too.
