Michael Dacosta is a Spanish winger who plays for Bournemouth. Born in Alicante, he spent time with Alicante and Hercules before his family moved to England, where he joined Bournemouth's academy. He developed as a left-footed attacker after a childhood motorcycle accident affected his right foot. Bournemouth sent him on loan to Crawley Town in 2024 and Hartlepool United in 2025 as he sought senior minutes.
