Diogo Costa is Porto’s main asset, but Dragao hasn’t come up with any offers that will please the goalkeeper, who has a release clause of 75 million euros.
This Friday, the last day that SAD has to allocate 50 million euros for the balance of accounts, it is almost certain that Diogo Costa will not leave, at least for the moment. Manchester United and Chelsea are clubs that play for the national team goalkeeper but are far from the value of the parole clause.
Porto urgently needs to get financial liquidity, but they also do not want to get rid of the most valuable player at a bargain price. Otavio and Taremi are other players with a market, but surveys of other clubs are exploratory in nature. However, the SAD, led by Pinto da Costa, is keeping the door open for possible deals until the transfer market closes (end of August). Wendell and Tony Martinez are also players who could come out of the season and leave several million euros in transfers.
