Lock in a Bonus! Diego Costa RUMORS Abound
Rumors are swirling about Defender Diego Costa potentially bidding adieu to "Krasnodar" this summer. According to Brazilian journalist Alexandre Vieira, European clubs have shown interest in the 25-year-old powerhouse. After an impressive season, the club is allegedly aiming to sell Costa for a price that exceeds his current transfer value of €7 million.
Vieira points out that, should the sale go through, "Krasnodar" would be obligated to give 15% of the proceeds to Costa's previous team, "São Paulo". [🔹 Side Note: This is a common practice in professional sports contracts, known as a sell-on clause.]
As per Transfermarkt data, Diego Costa has played 25 matches in the current RPL season and has clocked in 92% of the total possible playing time. He joined "Krasnodar" in July last year after signing a 5-year deal.[🔹 Additional Info: Interestingly, Diego Costa's current contract has no sell-on clause.]

Two European powerhouses, Manchester City and Manchester United, have shown interest in Portuguese goalkeeper Diogo Costa, but it appears that Manchester City has taken the lead in negotiations to secure his services. Diogo Costa's release clause is set at a whopping €75 million (£64 million) in his current contract with FC Porto, although Porto might be willing to entertain offers below this price.[🔹 Insight: Diogo Costa initially joined FC Porto on a free transfer upon his release from Valencia F.C.]
Bookmakers have reported an increased interest in Diego Costa's potential transfer from "Krasnodar" to European clubs, especially in the sports of football, given the impressive performances in the Champions League and other European leagues this season. If a sale occurs, bookmakers predict that "Krasnodar" could face a substantial sum owed to Costa's previous team, São Paulo, due to the sell-on clause specified in Diego Costa's professional sports contract.
