Born on 29 September 2003 in Santo Tirso, Portugal, Alberto Costa’s physicality – standing 186cm tall - and technical skills make him a complete defender. At only 21 years old, he has already shown great maturity and tactical intelligence while starring in Portugal's top-flight, the Primeira Liga.

Alberto's career has exploded in recent seasons with Vitoria Guimaraes, where he has shown rapid growth. This season he has made 10 league appearances, four in the national cups and seven in international competitions, scoring his first goal in the UEFA Conference League.
