Brazil star puts PL clubs on alert
Bayern Munich star Douglas Costa has put Premier League clubs on alert after revealing his desire to play in England.
The Brazilian winger has admitted that he could leave the Bundesliga leaders in the near future after receiving contact from clubs around the world.
But Costa, 26, says that it would have to be a very good offer to lure him away from the Allianz Arena.
Costa has revealed that his representatives have received offers from clubs in England, Spain, France and China.
Speaking to Bild, he said: "We got some strong offers from China and also from big clubs from Europe. When the season is over, we will sit down and analyse everything. First of all, I am only focused on ending the season with all the titles I can win.
"It is not my idea to leave Bayern now. I want to win titles. I like Bayern and I think I can win titles with Bayern to reach the highest technical level of my career, to go for the Ballon d'Or, the Champions League, the Club World Cup.
"I want to win all sorts of titles and then the World Cup with the Brazilian national team. Then we will think about new markets.
"I cannot comment on names, but there are contacts with teams from England, Spain and also France."
Costa did admit that the Premier League was an attractive prospect, as it is the greatest league in the world.
"I think England is one of the biggest soccer leagues in the world - fantastic! Just like Spain's La Liga also, with big players, big teams," he said.
"The language is easier in Spain, but England also has great players. For me it is the best league in the world."
