According to a source, a court in Rio Grande State has ordered the arrest of Douglas Costa for non-payment of child support. So far, no one will detain the player, as he is in the United States, where he defends the colours of the Los Angeles Galaxy, but if the striker arrives home, he will be visited by law enforcement agencies.

The footballer's representatives have not yet commented on this information, but they have assured that Douglas Costa will appeal.

We would like to remind you that Douglas Costa defended the colours of Shakhtar Donetsk from 2010 to 2015. Since 2022, Douglas Costa has been a player of the Los Angeles Galaxy, for whom he has played 32 matches and scored 4 goals.
