João Nuno hails Diogo Costa: “One of the world’s best” | OneFootball

João Nuno, Estrela da Amadora’s coach, spoke about the quality of FC Porto’s squad and had special praise for Diogo Costa.

João Nuno spoke at the press conference after Estrela da Amadora’s home defeat to the Dragons. The Tricolours’ coach assessed the strength of the Porto side and highlighted Diogo Costa as one of the best in the world in his position:

“In every match we created chances, even against Sporting. Of course they had more than us; we’re facing very strong teams and they have players who make the difference, who disrupt our strategy. We were controlling Victor and Gabri Veiga, but then they have players… Froholdt is by far one of the players of this league, the quality he has is incredible and he makes the difference. Diogo Costa is one of the best in the world…”

Diogo Costa is in his seventh season with FC Porto’s first team and leads the Primeira Liga in clean sheets, with 18. The Portugal international has played 47 matches in 2025/26, conceding 27 goals.
