Diogo Costa signs new Porto deal to 2030, clause now €60m | OneFootball

The Portuguese international goalkeeper Diogo Costa has extended his contract with FC Porto until 2030, announced the club leading the Primeira Liga this Tuesday. The agreement includes a release clause set at 60 million euros, 15 million below the one stipulated in the previous contract.

Captain of the 'dragons', the 26-year-old goalkeeper, whose contract was due to end in June 2027, now extends his connection to the club for another three seasons, consolidating his status as a key figure in Porto's sports project.

Entirely developed at FC Porto, Diogo Costa joined the club in 2011/12, went through the youth ranks, B team, and juniors – notably winning the Youth League – before making his debut in the main team in 2019/20. Since 2021/22, he has established himself as the undisputed starter in the blue and white goal.

His consistent performance at the club level has also translated into recognition in Portugal, already accumulating 42 international caps, in addition to winning the Nations League in June, and participating in the 2022 World Cup and Euro 2024.

With FC Porto, Diogo Costa has lifted two national championships (2019/20 and 2021/22), three Portuguese Cups (2021/22, 2022/23, and 2023/24), and two Cândido de Oliveira Super Cups (2022/23 and 2024/25), currently being the player with the longest tenure in the main squad.

In the current season, the goalkeeper has played 22 matches in all competitions and is part of one of the least conceded defenses in the championship, with only four goals conceded, highlighting the importance of the now-officialized renewal.
