Douglas Costa has been contacted by Manchester United, with a view to filling Cristiano Ronaldo’s boots, his agent has claimed.
The Brazilian’s representative, Cesar Bottega, has affirmed that The Red Devils, who are searching for a replacement for Ronaldo, are keeping a close watch on Gremio star Costa.
A host of clubs are fighting to secure the flying winger’s services, with United on the list of potential suitors, Bottega has claimed.
The spectacular Brazilian league starlet is seen as Ronaldinho’s successor in his homeland, and the promising attacker could seal a move to Old Trafford this summer according to Bottega.
“They [Manchester United] have identified four or five possible replacements for Cristiano Ronaldo in the world, and Douglas is one of them,” Bottega told Radio Gaucha.
“We have been contacted by several clubs some time ago, including Manchester [United], but by South American ones as well.
