Diego Costa to Atletico Madrid
Diego Costa has informed Chelsea he wants to leave the club this summer, reports AS. Roman Abramovich and Antonio Conte have also been informed about Costa’s decision to leave the club.
Experts say: Spanish media believe Diego Costa would be allowed to leave once Chelsea sign another striker.
Our take: Firstly, it remains to be seen if Chelsea can sign another striker of similar qualities. Chelsea can’t rely on Michy Batshuayi just yet, despite his immense potential. Costa is an established striker in the Premier League, and selling him doesn’t make too much sense at the moment. Things could definitely change should Chelsea sign another striker, and it also depends on who they sign. Costa might want to leave the club, but it certainly won’t be that easy to head out of the door.
Chances of it happening: 4/10
