Managerial career

Da Costa played football at an amateur level in the French lower division. An intelligent midfielder, his career was plagued by injuries.[1] Da Costa began coaching at Rouen, and eventually became a professional coach when he promoted Quevilly-Rouen to Ligue 2 in 2017.[2]

Da Costa left Quevilly-Rouen in May 2020.[3] A few days later, he was announced as manager of SC Lyon.[4] He was sacked from the job on 18 December 2020, after just one win in 16 games.[5] On 15 March 2021, he was announced as manager of Créteil.[6]

On 9 June 2022, it was announced that Da Costa had joined Ligue 2 side Saint-Étienne as assistant manager to Laurent Batlles.[7]

In June 2024, Da Costa became new manager of Hesperange in Luxembourg.[8]
