Paulo Sérgio Cardoso da Costa (born 5 December 1979) is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as an attacking midfielder. After hardly settling at any club for more than one decade, having played professionally in Portugal, Italy, France and Greece, he finally moved to Cyprus in his mid-20s, spending his remaining career there. He scored once from 42 Primeira Liga games over the course of three seasons, representing Alverca, Porto and Gil Vicente in the competition. ==Club career== Born in Moita, Setúbal District, Costa began playing as a senior at Sporting Clube Lourinhanense, Sporting Clube de Portugal's farm team. In 1999 he joined F.C. Alverca, rejoining another youth product of the Portuguese League giants, Marco Caneira. In June 2000 both Costa and Caneira signed with Inter Milan, who bought the pair in a co-ownership deal with Reggina Calcio. Costa was sold for €2 million〔FC Internazionale Milano SpA ''bilancio'' (financial report and accounts) on 30 June 2001, (PDF purchased from Italian C.C.I.A.A. ) 〕 and, in June 2001, Reggina acquired him outright for €1,3 million〔 and Inter bought back Caneira for an undisclosed fee; however, in July Costa was bought back from Reggina for €1,6 million〔FC Internazionale Milano SpA ''bilancio'' (financial report and accounts) on 30 June 2002, (PDF purchased from Italian C.C.I.A.A. ) 〕 and, in a continuing series of unassuming loans, then played with F.C. Porto (which also acquired 50% registration rights for €1,5 million〔), A.C. Venezia and FC Girondins de Bordeaux, rejoining former teammate Caneira in the latter (with the first and third clubs, he was often demoted to the reserves); he returned to Portugal for the 2004–05 season, joining Gil Vicente FC. Costa joined Aris Thessaloniki F.C. from Greece in January 2006,〔 〕 with his new club starting the second division season in poor fashion but improving their game and results under Nikos Anastopoulos and eventually returning to the top division, with the player contributing with 13 games; the following campaign he scored a career-best seven goals, with Aris overachieving for a final fourth place as he formed a successful offensive partnership with Koke. In August 2007 Costa started a Cypriot adventure, as many Portuguese players in that timeframe years, by joining Aris Limassol FC. On 3 January 2008 he signed a three 1/2-year contract with another side in the country, Anorthosis Famagusta FC. On 28 December 2008, continuing in Cyprus, Costa signed a six-month contract with APOEL FC, but his link was mutually rescinded on 13 March of the following year. In August 2009 he returned to Greece and penned a two-year deal with Levadiakos FC,〔 〕 leaving the club in January 2010 and moving back to Cyprus, signing for one 1/2-years with domestic cup holders APOP Kinyras FC. Costa moved to Ermis Aradippou for 2010–11, but was released shortly after. He finished the season with another team in the country, former club Aris Limassol, netting four goals as it returned to the top flight after one year. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paulo Costa (footballer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
