MANCHESTER United target Douglas Costa is available for just £18million, according to reports.
The injury-plagued Brazilian spent much of last season on the treatment table and managed just three goals in 29 appearances.

With two years left on his current deal at Juventus, new boss Andrea Pirlo has told the winger he is not part of his plans.
And Tuttosport report that Manchester United remain interested in Costa.
The 29-year-old was bought by Juve for around £36m in 2018 and was the subject of interest from United last year, with reports of an offer of around £54m.
But the Old Lady rebuffed the Red Devils’ approach, believing he could kick on to become an integral part of the side for many years.
However, his constant injury problems and the fresh approach from Pirlo mean he could be sold on the cheap instead.
And that could spell good news for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
The Old Trafford boss still has Jadon Sancho as his No1 transfer target as he looks to bring in a new winger.
There was even a suggestion Costa and Alex Sandro could be used as makeweights in a deal for Paul Pogba to return to Juventus.
As well as Costa, though, United have identified Bournemouth star David Brooks as another alternative if they cannot land Sancho.
However, Barcelona duo Ousmane Dembele and Ansu Fati look to be off the cards.
