Catalan media outlet El Mundo Deportivo claims that Barcelona are hot on the trail of Shakhtar Donetsk attacker Douglas Costa. The Camp Nou outfit is in the market for attacking reinforcements given that Pedro Rodriguez is currently the only serious back-up to starting trio Messi, Suarez and Neymar. But, with the Spain international heavily linked with a summer exit, the Catalans desperately need to add another high-profile forward to their ranks. Seeing as their primary target Marco Reus has signed a new deal with Borussia Dortmund, Barcelona have turned their attention towards Shakhtar’s Douglas Costa. The Catalans have been keeping close tabs on the winger for over two years now and they will make another check when Bayern host Shakhtar later today. Douglas Costa, 24, has managed 36 goals and 38 assists in 190 competitive appearances for Shakhtar Donetsk and he is expected to leave the Pitmen for a top European club at the end of the season.
