Juventus want to sign Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Raul Jimenez as a replacement for Douglas Costa, according to a report.

Juventus are reportedly keen to sign Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Raul Jimenez this summer as a replacement for Brazilian attacker Douglas Costa.

Jimenez has been in excellent form for Wolves during the 2019-20 campaign, scoring 26 times and contributing 10 assists in 51 appearances in all competitions.

The 29-year-old has been linked with a number of clubs in recent months, including Manchester United and Liverpool, who could both move for new forwards this summer.

However, according to Tuttosport, Juve are firmly in the race for the Mexico international, who has been identified as a possible replacement for Costa.

The report claims that the Old Lady are attempting to offload the Brazil international to either Manchester City or Paris Saint-Germain in order to raise funds for Jimenez.

Maurizio Sarri's side are thought to be keen to sign a new striker as a replacement for Gonzalo Higuain, with Manchester City's Gabriel Jesus also previously mentioned as a possible target.
