The Portuguese press are adamant that Manchester United are the main contenders for the signing of FC Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa.
Portuguese newspaper O Jogo dig into the details behind the potential transfer, and note how Porto are in need of making a big sale before the end of the month.
The same report outlines how David de Gea still hasn’t signed a new contract, and with Erik ten Hag wanting a more progressing keeper between the sticks, Costa seems the ideal replacement.
However, United don’t want to pay the €75m release clause to sign Costa.
It is also stated that the process for Costa’s sale ‘should accelerate’ after the upcoming period of internationals.
Costa would be a significant upgrade on De Gea and he’s young enough to be around for a long time.
Maybe Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Dalot can have words before they go on holiday.
