Douglas Costa is expected to complete his move to Gremio within 48 hours, the Brazilian club’s vice president said.

The 30-year-old old joined Bayern Munich on loan from Juventus this past October, but the Bavarians had informed Serie A giants they would not make the winger’s move permanent at the end of the season.

The Brazilian is now expected to return to his former club Gremio on a free transfer.

The Brazilian is now expected to return to his former club Gremio on a free transfer.

“Negotiations are underway. Juventus officially authorized us to make a deal with the player,” Gremio’s vice president Marcos Herrmann told Globo Esporte.

“We are waiting for the documentation, which should arrive Tuesday or Wednesday, and there is enough time to register the player before the window closes. We are optimistic.”

Douglas Costa’s Juventus contract expires in 2022, but the Bianconeri will terminate the agreement with the Brazilian winger one year in advance.

That would see the Old Lady register a capital loss that will be compensated almost entirely by saving on the player’s wages.
