Diogo Costa has been linked with Real Madrid as a potential replacement for Andriy Lunin. Jorge Mendes, his agent, is expected to suggest his name to Real Madrid. However, his high release clause is seen as the main obstacle.

Diogo Costa is being considered by Real Madrid as a potential acquisition. The potential departure of Andriy Lunin, who is in the last year of his contract and has yet to agree on a renewal, might lead Real Madrid to target Diogo Costa, the current goalkeeper for FC Porto and the Portugal national team. Both players are represented by agent Jorge Mendes, who will meet with Real Madrid's football structure this week to discuss Lunin's future and suggest Diogo Costa's name. The main obstacle is Diogo Costa's release clause of €75 million, which FC Porto may be flexible about under certain conditions.
