Diogo Costa has been linked with a move away from FC Porto, with Chelsea and Bayern Munich keen on securing his services.
Bayern Munich will face competition from Chelsea and Manchester United for Diogo Costa. According to a report by Caught Offside, the €70 million-rated Portuguese international is a man in demand. It will be interesting to see where he ends up eventually.
The 25-year-old has been linked with Barcelona as well. Bayern Munich are looking to bring in a quality long-term successor for Manuel Neuer, and they have identified Costa as a target. The Portuguese international has shown his quality with FC Porto, and he could be attracted to the idea of moving to the Bundesliga.
Bayern Munich are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the opportunity to play for them can be hard to turn down. Meanwhile, Chelsea are looking to sign a quality goalkeeper as well. The Robert Sanchez transfer has not worked out for them.
The Spaniard has been quite underwhelming, and Chelsea are now looking to replace him despite recent suggestions that they still back him. It will be interesting to see if they can beat Bayern Munich and get a deal done for Diogo Costa, who will cost a sizeable €70 million.
Manchester United move would be a surprise
Manchester United have been linked with the €70 million-rated Portuguese international as well, and it will be interesting to see if they decide to make a move for him in the coming months. They have already spent a substantial amount of money on Andre Onana, and spending big money on another goalkeeper would be quite surprising.
Manchester United need to improve the other areas of their squad, and it remains to be seen how the situation develops. Diogo Costa will certainly be attracted to the idea of playing in the Premier League. Manchester United and Chelsea are among the biggest clubs in the world.
They could provide him with the platform to compete at the highest level and push for major trophies. It would be a major step up in the goalkeeper’s career, and it remains to be seen where he ends up. All three clubs would be attractive destinations for him, and he will hope that they can secure an agreement with Porto in the coming months.
