Left-back Gonçalo Costa has a contract with Sporting CP until 2024. He is only 22 years old. He has played in the U19, U23 and Sporting CP II, the Lisbon club's reserve team. In addition, he has been an international with Portugal Under 17.

'A Bola' claims that Gonçalo Costa is on Barcelona's agenda, and not just for the long term: they would consider him for the 22-23 season. Xavi is looking for a left-back and has several names in mind.

Thus, according to the Portuguese press, the targets of Jose Luis Gaya and Javi Galan should now be joined by Gonçalo Costa, who has been with Sporting CP since he was 14 years old.

Despite the fact that he has not yet played a single minute with Sporting CP's first team, according to the Portuguese newspaper, Barça have been following him for some time and believe he could fit the profile of the player the coach is looking for.

In any case, Barça's priority is to find financing to be able to afford signings. And the big name, for when the economic levers are activated, is Robert Lewandowski, the striker they are dreaming of at the Camp Nou. From there, the club will have to decide which positions to strengthen.
