Lukáš Horníček is being mentioned as a possible alternative for FC Porto in goal, should Diogo Costa leave the Dragons during this transfer window.
The 24-year-old Czech goalkeeper is under contract with Braga, who have set his release clause at €30 million. Any potential departure is only expected to happen if that amount is paid to the Minho club.
Benfica and Sporting are also reportedly keeping an eye on the player, having identified Horníček as an option to strengthen the position, in a summer in which Portugal’s Big Three are closely monitoring the goalkeeper market.
At FC Porto, everything will depend on the future of Diogo Costa. The Dragons are not willing to negotiate the sale of the Portugal international for anything below the €60 million release clause, despite Chelsea’s alleged interest and the attention of other European clubs.
