Pedro Sousa, former Portuguese tennis player, considered that the best management act by André Villas-Boas at the helm of FC Porto was the contract renewal of Diogo Costa. The statement comes in the context of an analysis of the sporting leadership of the current Porto president.
Sousa also highlighted that Diogo Costa has the profile and ambition necessary to move to European giants in the future. The goalkeeper has been considered one of the best in his position, which has attracted the attention of several top clubs.
According to Pedro Sousa, Diogo Costa is in no hurry to leave FC Porto. This apparent contractual stability represents an asset for the club, which thus manages to keep one of its most valuable assets in the squad.
The renewal of Diogo Costa thus stands as an example of Villas-Boas's strategy to retain the main players, ensuring sporting competitiveness while managing the individual aspirations of the athletes.
