Loved having Jorge at Charlton for that brief but enjoyable period during the 2001/2002 season. The most talented and consistent defender ever to represent our club RIP
R.I.P Jorge Costa you absolute legend of a player.
Will still have him in my all time 11 I’ve seen at Charlton. I surprisingly met him and even played football with him at Cape Verde years ago. Absolutely gutted about this.
Jorge Costa woooahh he comes from Portugal he f**king hates Millwall. Jorge Costa wooaaah
Truly heartbreaking news. Was a great player for Charlton and formed a fantastic partnership with Mark Fish. 53 is no age. Taken far too soon. RIP Jorge Costa
Does anyone remember that tackle from him against Chelsea at home? Think it was Hasselbaink about to pull the trigger and he just took the ball off his foot with ease. Class.
Hardest in the tackle of any centre halves in 73 yrs of watching and that includes the great Derek Ufton and Paul Miller Saw Jorge at Old Trafford - at the whistle the entire United team queued to shake his hand . Professionals recognise and respect those players who show genuine skill and class RIP Jorge

Crazy that they even let him out on loan in the first place.
Special player. One of the best to ever wear Charlton’s colours.
Far too young.
An absolute class act.
RIP Jorge 💔

RIP Jorge
He gave his all for us when he was here.
The love was mutual between Jorge and Charlton.
I remember reading on Instagram when we got relegated five years ago he described us as one of the two teams close to my heart.
I hope the club pays tribute to him Saturday
RIP big man.
RIP Boss
What the actual f**k!!!! - RIP... Loved watching him for us
