Analysis overview
Costas operates as a progressive distributor from the back, comfortable receiving possession under pressure and switching play with accuracy. His strength lies in reading space early and initiating attacks from deep, using his technical security to bypass the first press. He's a thinking defender—positioning ahead of contact, using his frame intelligently rather than chasing.
