Portuguese Club Preparing to sell 23-year-old Man Utd, Chelsea target due to financial difficulties.
FC Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa has reportedly emerged as a potential target for several Premier League clubs. The 23-year-old, who recently signed a new contract at Porto, could be sold during the summer transfer window due to financial pressures faced by the Portuguese outfit, according to a report from 90min.
The report claims that Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are all keen on signing the talented shot-stopper, and could potentially trigger his £65 million release clause. Costa has impressed this season with his commanding presence between the posts and impressive shot-stopping ability, making him an attractive prospect for top-flight clubs in need of a reliable goalkeeper.
The young Portuguese goalkeeper has risen through the ranks at FC Porto, and has established himself as a first-team regular this season. He has made 24 appearances in all competitions and has conceded just 14 goals, helping Porto to second place in the Primeira Liga standings.
Costa’s potential departure would be a blow for Porto, but with financial pressures mounting, the sale of the highly-rated goalkeeper could provide a much-needed cash injection for the club.
