Diego Costa on Chelsea future: I refuse to do this
DIEGO COSTA is refusing to rule out quitting Chelsea this summer.
Posted Thursday, March 23, 2017 by Express.co.uk
The Blues hitman attracted strong interest from the Chinese Super League in January.
And the 28-year-old also pushed for a return to Atletico Madrid before the start of the season.
Chelsea have been keen to tie Costa down long-term with his value obvious to Antonio Conte’s team.

However, his future remains somewhat in limbo, with Chelsea preparing for life without him.
A move for Everton hitman and former Blues forward Romelu Lukaku is being lined up, while Real Madrid’s Alvaro Morata is also on Conte’s radar.
Costa does not insist he will leave, but even on the back of a successful first season under Conte, it may not be enough to keep the Spain international in west London.

"Now I'm doing very well at Chelsea but do not rule out anything in the future,” Diego Costa told Spanish radio station El Larguero.
"In life everything can happen.
"Do not close the door to anyone."
