  • Costa had a mixed second season with the Stamford Bridge side with most of his goals coming after the turn of the year.

    According to The Mirror, Atleti manager Diego Simeone is desperate to re-sign the 27-year-old after he was provided assurances over a reasonable transfer budget for the summer.

    The player is also open to a La Liga comeback following communications with Atleti president Enrique Cerezo.

    Chelsea currently rate Costa at around £35m.
