Mamelodi Sundowns made social media buzz in the announcement of Brazilian signing, Lucas Ribeiro Costa, so is he worth all the hype? Soccer Laduma finds out. SLSiya Read more:

of the off-season, hailing from Belgian club SK Beveren, who are campaigning in the Challenger Pro League after the Tshwane giants also announced Lesiba Nku from Marumo Gallants and Junior Mendieta from Stellenbosch FC. The reigning DStv Premiership champions announced Costa as a blockbuster signing in well-executed video clips of his arrival at the Airport and at Sundowns' base at Chloorkop.

Charleroi had bought him from Royal Excelsior Virton but the Brazilian, at age 21, could not get regular game time and was loaned out to the likes of RWDM, Mouscron and Beveren in the second division, before he had his best career season at Beveren last term, where he scored seven goals and got six assists in a regular campaign of 22 matches.

The 24-year-old's stats at Beveren last season are similar to those posted by South Africa's Al Ahly forward Percy Tau in the Challenger Pro League in the 2018/19 season where he won the League Player of the Season award while he was on loan at Royale Union Saint Gilloise.
