Serbian midfielder Kostic of Juventus has once again rejected an offer from a Russian club in recent hours, according to an update from leading Italian journalist Scilla. He has previously turned down offers from a number of clubs including Al Ain, Southampton and Eintracht Frankfurt. This series of moves shows Kostic's cautious approach to the transfer market and also reflects his careful consideration of his future destination.
Scilla further revealed that Kostic is not currently in Juventus' plans for the new season, which is why the club is actively looking to sell him. Although Kostic has shown some strength in past seasons, it is clear that he does not occupy a central position in the new manager's and club's strategic planning.
Galatasaray FC still maintains a strong interest in Kostic. As a strong team in the Turkish league, Galatasaray has always had a good vision and strength in attracting reinforcements. However, whether or not Kostic will choose to join Galatasaray requires further communication and negotiation between the two sides.
In addition, Juventus did not include Kostic in their Champions League roster for the new season, which to a certain extent reflects his marginalized position in the team. For a professional player, it is undoubtedly a kind of honor and recognition to be able to represent the team to participate in the highest level of European tournaments, and Kostic's absence is undoubtedly a kind of visual embodiment of his status quo.
