It’s a matter of when not if Diego Costa will leave the club this summer, with the striker determined to complete a summer exit.
Chelsea are prepared for it having brought in Alvaro Morata from Real Madrid for a club-record £70m fee, not to mention that Michy Batshuayi has looked very impressive in pre-season thus far as well.
Costa wants to return to Atletico Madrid and the La Liga side want to bring him back to Spain, but they’re reluctant to meet Chelsea’s asking price for Costa, while their current transfer ban is also a stumbling block.
Eager to sort out his client’s future, Jorge Mendes has held talks with free-spending Serie A giants AC Milan over a potential deal for Costa, claim Italian source Gazzetta dello Sport.
Milan have already brought in Andre Silva from Porto but have tried and failed to recruit Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Dortmund and Andrea Belotti from Torino this summer, forcing them to try for Diego Costa.
Whether Milan’s move for Costa is a temporary loan until Atletico Madrid are able to sign him in January or a permanent transfer remains to be seen. - Read Sport
