http://www.goal.com/en/Articolo.aspx?ContenutoId=564918 Fiorentina are on the verge of signing Portugal defender Manuel Da Costa from PSV Eindhoven according to the latest reports from Italy It has been reported that the Viola have offered 4.5m Euros to the Dutch side in a bid to make it a permanent deal. The stopper began his career in France with Nancy and then he moved to PSV in 2006. He has only played 15 times for the Eredivisie side and has scored once. Reports have suggested that the Viola have beaten off competition from Parma and Juventus who were interested in signing the player to cover their injury crisis in defence. According to Italian media Parma and Juve tried to land the player in a co-ownership deal but Fiorentina seem to have gained the upper hand as the transfer market closes on Thursday night. Cesare Prandelli's men are hoping to qualify for the Champions League, a competition Costa has experience in, and therefore they are looking to strengthen their squad in preparation for Europe』s elite club competition. The Viola have missed out on the competition twice in the last three years and no doubt they would not want to miss out again. The 21-year-old was born in France but he has decided to play for Portugal even though he had the chance to play for Les Bleus. -- 為了下季的歐冠fio需要有經驗的球員 所以以€4.5m打敗祖文和Parma 從PSV引進前Nancy的法國出生葡萄牙藉的21歲正太後衛Da Costa 當初PSV只花了€1M -- Da Costa 全名:Manuel Marouan da Costa Trindade 出生日:1986/5/6 出生地: Saint-Max, France 生高:191cm 體重:85kg 經歷: 球隊 先發 替補 入球 2005-06 French Ligue 1 AS Nancy-Lorraine 6 3 0 2006-07 Dutch Eredivisie PSV 14 1 1 Dutch Cup PSV 2 0 0 2007-08 Dutch Eredivisie PSV 0 1 0 Champions League PSV 1 0 0 --
