Jorge Costa, Porto's Champions League-winning captain, dies aged 53

Jorge Costa, the captain of FC Porto's Champions League-winning side of 2004, has died aged 53. The former central defender, who was working as Porto's football director, passed away from a cardiac arrest on Tuesday, the Portuguese club confirmed. He had been taken to hospital earlier in the day after feeling unwell at the club's Olival training complex. Advertisement The centre-back, known for his fierce competitiveness, spent 15 years at Porto and won 24 trophies at the club — including the Champions League in 2004 and the UEFA Cup the previous season. 'Jorge Costa has left us. One of us, a leader, captain, example. A symbol of FC Porto,' the club said on Tuesday. Jorge Costa deixou-nos. Um de nós, um líder, capitão, exemplo. Um símbolo do FC Porto. Obrigado por seres FC Porto até ao fim. Até sempre, Jorge Costa. — FC Porto (@FCPorto) August 5, 2025 'Thank you for being FC Porto until the end. Forever, Jorge Costa.' Costa's early career encompassed loan spells at Portuguese sides Penafiel and Maritimo, and spent the 2001-02 season on loan at English side Charlton Athletic and spent 2005-06, the final season of his playing career, at Standard Liege in Belgium. Costa, who played 50 times for Portugal at international level, went on to have a 17-year career in management including spells at Braga, Cluj, AEL Limassol and the Gabon national side. His final managerial job was at AVS in 2023-24, before returning to Porto in a directorial role. (Mike Egerton/EMPICS via Getty Images)

Ahmedhodzic's bargain Feyenoord transfer fee revealed

Feyenoord are reportedly paying just under €7 million for summer signing Anel Ahmedhodzic, according to Voetbal International. The 26-year-old defender was quickly acquired from Sheffield United on Tuesday. Ahmedhodzic has signed a four-year contract in Rotterdam and could make his debut for Feyenoord on Wednesday as the Rotterdam side face Fenerbahçe in the preliminary round of the Champions League. As VoetbalPrimeur explain, Feyenoord are doing everything they can to get the Bosnian eligible to play in the two-legged tie against José Mourinho's team. 'The club are receiving assistance from the KNVB (Royal Dutch Football Association) in this regard.' Feyenoord bought out Ahmedhodzic's one-year contract with Sheffield United for a transfer fee of approximately €6.9 million, VI reports. 'There is also a bonus and resale structure.' Immediately, on first viewing, this seems like a good deal, as Transfermarkt estimates Ahmedhodzic's value to be considerably higher, at 18 million euros. Ahmedhodzic had been under contract with Sheffield United since the summer of 2022, having signed from Swedish club Malmö for approximately €4.5 million. He made 114 appearances for the English club, scoring 12 goals and providing three assists from defence. GBeNeFN | Max Bradfield

Cristian Chivu Initiates ‘Soft Revolution' At Inter Milan, Works On Repairing Broken Relationships

New manager Cristian Chivu has launched a subtle overhaul at Inter Milan, focusing on mending fractured bonds. According to Corriere della Sera via FCInterNews, the Romanian boss is keen to restore a fee-good factor at San Siro. Cristian Chivu has inherited a fractured squad from Simone Inzaghi. On paper, Inter look strong, perhaps even better than last season, yet the team desperately lacks confidence. Indeed, the 2024/25 season was heartbreaking. In addition to a disastrous defeat in the Champions League final, the Nerazzurri lost a tight Scudetto race to Napoli. Inter Milan Embark on Intense Pre-Season Under Cristian Chivu PASADENA, CALIFORNIA – JUNE 17: Cristian Chivu, Head Coach of FC Internazionale Milano, reacts following the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 group E match between CF Monterrey and FC Internazionale Milano at Rose Bowl Stadium on June 17, 2025 in Pasadena, California. (Photo by) Chivu's first assignment is to restore confidence inside the dressing room. Meanwhile, his training methods are similar to Inzaghi's with one crucial difference. Indeed, he demands a much higher intensity, especially in the defensive phase. Furthermore, the 44-year-old has to address another major setback. The three key first-team stars have strained relationships, and Chivu is working hard to rebuild trust and cohesion among them. Lautaro Martinez, Hakan Calhanoglu, and Marcus Thuram are the players in question. However, Chivu has already laid the groundwork for improvement through open communication and team-building sessions.
