Manchester United are reportedly ready to rekindle their interest in Shakhtar Donetsk star Douglas Costa.

The Brazilian midfielder has been a big hit since his move to Ukraine in January 2010, helping his side to three successive domestic titles.

Costa was linked with a move to United before joining Shakhtar and was said to have caught the attention of United boss Sir Alex Ferguson earlier in the season but interest cooled.

However, according to CaughtOffside and Italiansource TuttoMercato, the Old Trafford side are now ready to offer £20million for Costa’s services as Ferguson looks to bolster his midfield options.

The former Grêmio man recently scored in the Champions League group stages against Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund.
