Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has reiterated that everything is fine between him and star striker Diego Costa.

  • The Spain international was linked with a potential move to China earlier last month after he had a training-ground dispute with the Italian boss.

    He was therein left out of the matchday squad of the 3-0 win over Leicester City after which he has retained his place in the starting lineup.

    Speculation continues to link Costa with a big-money move to the Chinese Super League, but Conte insists that everything is 'perfect' with regards to his situation at Stamford Bridge.

    "Diego? I was clear with him, I spoke to him forcefully and he understood me. Now everything is perfect," he told Sky Italia.

    Costa, who has netted 15 goals through the league campaign, has been recently offered a £30m annual package to join Chinese outfit Tianjin Quanjian.
