Douglas Costa Shows Off Outrageous 1st Touch in Bayern Munich Video

Douglas Costa has shown precisely why Bayern Munich were willing to pay top dollar for his services with an outrageous skill move in training.

Pep Guardiola's side paid €30 million to sign the 25-year-old from Shakhtar Donetsk in summer, and he has since scored five goals and registered nine assists in 21 appearances for the German giants, per WhoScored.com.

And in the Bundesliga leaders' "Move of the Week" YouTube video, Costa appears alongside Thiago and Arturo Vidal in a relaxed yet highly skillful game of keepy-uppy.

But it's the Brazilian's superb control of a high ball that catches the attention, as he plucks the ball from the air before scooping it back to Thiago.

Bayern hold an eight-point lead over second-placed Borussia Dortmund ahead of this weekend's home match against Hoffenheim.
