Transfers to Juventus Kostic has signed a four-year contract with Juventus upon joining from Eintracht Frankfurt, the team announced.

Impact Kostic has been highly productive, especially in terms of assists, in Bundesliga in recent seasons. He's poised to have a big role at Juventus as well, especially until Federico Chiesa comes back from injury. He logged seven goals, 13 helpers, 112 chances and 536 crosses (139 accurate) in 43 appearances across all competitions in 2021/2022. While he's unlikely to retain that kind of volume since he will no longer be his team's top playmaker, he should continue to put up decent numbers.

Impact Kostic is reportedly in talks with Juventus and has been given permission to pursue this move instead of playing in this game. It's a big loss for Frankfurt if it happens, but Ansgar Knauff could help lighten the burden on the attack along with Randall Kolo Muani.

The majority of his value will always come from his crossing, however, as long as he is producing created chances and shots of his own, he will always have the capability of hitting his ceiling.
