Former Bayern Munich and Juventus star Douglas Costa has announced two huge moves in a matter of days.
First, the Brazilian was unveiled by Australian club Sydney FC to huge fanfare on Monday, with the 33-year-old the A-League‘s latest marquee signing.
Costa, who has won 33 caps for Brazil, is hoping to emulate Italian legend Alessandro del Piero during his tenure with the Sky Blues.
On Wednesday, Costa announced a second big move which he hopes will excite fans.
The winger revealed the launch of his OnlyFans page, joining a number of professional athletes who have begun sharing behind-the-scenes content on the subscription platform.
OnlyFans has long been associated with adult entertainment, but the company is attempting to align itself closer with TikTok and YouTube, enticing a range of creators from other industries, like sport, to broaden its audience.
The likes of Nick Kyrgios, Derek Chisora and Liz Cambage have created their own profiles, and now Costa has added his name to the growing list, promising to ‘make fans happy’ with his content.
‘I decided to join OnlyFans because I believe in the company’s credibility and potential for global reach,’ he said.
‘Together, this partnership has everything to be very interesting and successful. The segment in which OnlyFans seeks to have athletes as brand ambassadors greatly impacts the market, and I am more than happy to be part of it, especially as one of the pioneers in the soccer segment.
‘As an OnlyFans creator, I will create exclusive content for my fans that they won’t be able to see on any other social media, and it will make a great difference.
‘I hope this partnership will be lasting and I can make my fans happy with my content.’
Costa’s page has been active since August 8 and is free to view at the time of publication. It currently consists of a handful of photos of him playing for his previous clubs, plus a video clip of him boxing.
‘Hello guys… Here I will be posting some of my things and part of my daily life too!! A hug and we’re together,’ he said.
