Danny da Costa News: Moves to center-back

da Costa played 25 times (all starts) at center-back during his fourth season with Mainz.

da Costa made the move to Mainz four years ago and was generally seen as a right wing-back. As his legs have gone due to age and some injuries da Costa made the swap to center-back, where he proved an admirable option. da Costa should continue in that role next season after starting nearly every match for the final five months.
