Leite, formerly Costa’s assistant and now part of Marítimo’s coaching staff, made a point of honouring him.

Costa, once director of professional football at Porto, died on five August 2025 from cardiorespiratory arrest.

The gesture took place as the island club celebrated their rise to the I Liga.
