Manchester United and Manchester City are ready to face off in a new duel, this time in the transfer market, with goalkeeper Diogo Costa as the protagonist. Both clubs have set their sights on the FC Porto goalkeeper, and everything points to an intense bidding war for his services. While the 'Citizens' are looking for a replacement for Ederson, whose departure seems imminent, the 'Red Devils' believe André Onana has not met expectations and see the Portuguese as a reliable alternative.
Onana's performance has been inconsistent since his arrival at Old Trafford, and his errors in key matches have raised doubts within the club. Ruben Amorim, who is gearing up for his first full season in charge of the team, is not convinced that the Cameroonian is the best choice to defend the goal, leading the management to seek reinforcements. In this context, Costa emerges as the ideal candidate to take on the role.
Guardiola Wants Diogo Costa to Replace Ederson
However, Manchester City has also set its sights on the 25-year-old goalkeeper. Guardiola believes Ederson's time at the club is coming to an end and he needs a quality replacement that fits his style of play. Costa, with his ability to play with his feet and agility between the posts, fits perfectly into the profile sought by the Spanish coach.
FC Porto, aware of the interest in their player, is in a strong position to negotiate. Costa's release clause amounts to £70 million, which will require interested clubs to make a compelling offer if they want to secure his services.
