According to reports Atletico Madrid have offered £50million for outgoing Chelsea striker Diego Costa
Chelsea and Atletico Madrid have apparently started negotiating a £50million transfer of Diego Costa as he looks for a new club away from Stamford Bridge.
However, despite Atletico being hit by a transfer ban, which would prevent them from registering Costa as part of their squad until January, which pretty much means they plan to loan him out after signing him.
Other reports claim it is Inter Milan that are close to signing him, however, today it’s back to Atletico.
The Blues are said to want to ensure they get decent money for Costa after fears that his alleged bust-up with manager Antonio Conte going public could significantly weaken their negotiating position.
According to the Daily Mirror, Chelsea Football Club are demanding a £50m fee for Costa who has had a good run in England since moving from Atletico to Chelsea just three years ago.
The Spain international has a record of 59 goals in 120 games for Chelsea.
