Premier League side Crystal Palace are actively seeking to bring in Juventus' left wing-back Kostic, according to a new report from Torino Sport. The 31-year-old Serbian international has been in the spotlight for his outstanding performances on the pitch, and Juventus are interested in selling him this summer to optimize their squad.
The report suggests that Crystal Palace boss Glasner has a soft spot for Kostic, with the pair having had a very successful spell together at Eintracht Frankfurt. Glasner led Eintracht Frankfurt to the UEFA Cup in the 2021-22 season, and Kostic was a key member of the team, making 43 appearances in that season, contributing seven goals and 13 assists, showing a high level of athleticism and team contribution.
It is reported that Juventus valued Kostic at 8 million euros, a relatively reasonable price for Crystal Palace. Considering the tacit understanding between Kostic and Glasner and his outstanding performance in Frankfurt, Crystal Palace believes that the introduction of Kostic will be a cost-effective deal, which will help to improve the overall strength and competitiveness of the team.
Crystal Palace are currently in active contact with Juventus to explore the possibility of signing Kostic. If this deal can be successfully reached, Kostic will return to the Premier League, and join hands with Glasner again, injecting new vigor and power into Crystal Palace's new season journey. At the same time, this will also be an important adjustment for Juventus in the transfer market, to make more space for the team's future development.
