Club career

Nacional

Born in Câmara de Lobos, Madeira, Costa finished his development at local C.F. União. He made his senior debut with the club in 2006, and played three third-division seasons with it.

Costa joined neighbouring C.D. Nacional in summer 2009, appearing in 14 games in his first season in the Primeira Liga (nine as a substitute) and scoring two goals[1][2] as the team finished in seventh position. His debut in the competition came on 12 September 2009, playing 25 minutes in a 2–0 away loss against Rio Ave FC.[3]

On 14 July 2011, Costa scored on his continental debut in the second qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League, opening a 1–1 draw away to Iceland's Fimleikafélag Hafnarfjarðar.[4] In January 2012 he spent a week on trial at West Ham United,[5] but nothing came of it.

In summer 2013, Costa was loaned to Moreirense F.C. of the Segunda Liga.[6] He scored in wins at S.L. Benfica B (2–1)[7] and C.D. Feirense (4–0)[8] for the eventual champions.[9]

Marítimo

Costa subsequently returned to the Portuguese top tier with C.S. Marítimo. On 27 November 2015, he was sent off in a 3–1 loss at Nacional in the Madeira derby;[10] in the reverse fixture on 2 April he scored a volley to open a 2–0 win.[11] He was named captain before the start of 2016–17,[12] and signed new contracts in November 2016[13] and June 2019.[14]

On 12 January 2020, Costa played his 200th top-flight game in a goalless draw with Vitória de Guimarães.[15] Starting from that August,[16] he signed three one-year contract extensions.[17][18]

In January 2023, Costa accused his agent Miguel Pinho of attempting to bribe him to lose to S.L. Benfica.[19]

International career

Costa represented Portugal at under-19 level.[20]

Costa's younger sister, Érica (born 1995), played in the same position for Marítimo's women's team.[21][22]
