Atletico Madrid are reportedly on the verge of signing Chelsea outcast, Diego Costa.
According to Sky Sports, Diego Simeone’s side have “made a breakthrough in negotiations over Costa’s proposed move from Chelsea.”
The La Liga side are in a transfer ban meaning they can sign players but are unable to register them until January.
It is believed Atletico have made a new offer in the region of £53 million which has matched Chelsea’s demands.
The clubs want the issue resolved and the deal finalised before the two sides meet in the Champions League on September 27.
