Douglas Costa named player of the season so far by fellow Bundesliga stars

Douglas Costa has been named Bundesliga player of the season so far in a poll conducted by German magazine Kicker.

The poll, which was voted for by 244 professionals from Germany's top flight, saw Costa beat Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to top spot, while Bayern Munich team-mates Thomas Muller and Robert Lewandowski finished in third and fourth place, respectively.

Costa has registered an impressive seven assists in 12 Bundesliga games since moving to Bayern from Shakhtar Donetsk in the summer and has scored two goals.

Muller was also named the fourth-best player in the world with seven per cent of the votes, behind Lionel Messi (46.7%), Cristiano Ronaldo (23.8%) and Neymar (9.8%).

A whopping 96% of voters also expect Bayern to win the Bundesliga this season, while 40.6% believe that Pep Guardiola's side will win the Champions League.

Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer was named the league's best shot stopper ahead of Timo Horn.
