Reports suggest Eintracht Frankfurt star Filip Kostic is likely to join Juventus this summer – and should he leave, Hamburger SV will reportedly receive a part of the transfer fee.

The 29-year-old wide man is said to be keen on a move to the Serie A giants, who have reportedly offered him a contract until 2025 worth €2.5 million per season.
Per Sport1, Juventus are planning to make an opening bid of €12.5 million, but Eintracht are holding out for a fee closer to €20 million.
Should Kostic leave, Frankfurt will have to pay five percent the transfer fee to his former club Hamburger SV, who have a sell-on clause for the Serbian international, according to Bild.
So far, however, Juventus are apparently yet to contact Frankfurt about the 29-year-old.
"We haven't heard anything from Juventus yet," emphasized Eintracht board member for Sport Markus Krösche in an interview with Wiesbadener Kurier.
