Santos made a proposal for Douglas Costa, who is free on the market, to reinforce their attack for 2024, but the deal seems complicated; understand
O Santos continues to keep an eye on opportunities to assemble a competent squad to return to the elite of Brazilian football as quickly as possible. Therefore, Peixe made a proposal for Douglas Costaattacker who was in the Los Angeles Galaxy, but is no longer linked to any club at the moment. The information is from ‘GE’.
The negotiation, however, seems to be very complicated due to the values that Santos can offer for the player, who is hoping for a large contract to return to Brazilian football. Peixe is going through a salary reduction process, so, according to ‘GE’, the values offered are below what was expected by the attacker, revealed by Guild.
The big problem, besides the financial one, is the competition with other clubs. Therefore, Santos would have to make the deal viable and convince Douglas Costa in an unlikely way, as he has been receiving surveys from teams in Saudi Arabia, for example.
Santos is looking for options to reinforce its attack and Douglas would be one of them, in addition to William Mustachewhich is very close to the São Paulo club and Pedrinhowhich was in America-MG and started the year with São Paulo. Last season, the striker made 22 appearances and scored four goals for the Los Angeles Galaxy, more positive numbers than his last spell at Grêmio, in 2021.
