COSTA
Atletico Madrid and Chelsea have held further talks on
Wednesday over a compromise fee for Diego Costa.
A Spanish lawyer representing
Chelsea is understood to have listened to Atletico's proposal which is to pay
around £39m with a further £10m based on add-ons.
Costa has interest from Everton, Las
Palmas and Besiktas among others over a potential short term loan until he is
cleared to be registered to play for Atletico Madrid in January.
The Brazil-born striker is keen to
leave Stamford Bridge after being made surplus to requirements ahead of the
start of the new season.
He revealed over the summer that he
had received a text from Antonio Conte telling him he was no longer part of his
plans.
In an interview with Sportsmail,
which took place in his home town of Lagarto, where he has spent his summer,
Costa said he felt as though he had been treated like a 'criminal'.
The 28-year-old has insisted that
the only club he will join is his former side Atletico, who he won La Liga within
2013-14.
