D. Costa asked for permission to leave "Atletico" © JumpStory

Diego Costa's career stage at Madrid's "Atletico" team may soon come to an end. The 32-year-old player has reportedly asked the "La Liga" club not to delay and to allow him to become a free agent six months before the end of his contract. According to the footballer, this decision is due to personal reasons, as reported by AS. If "Atletico" does not agree to part ways with the veteran so quickly, he hopes to negotiate a transfer to another club, as he is not lacking in offers. In this Spanish championship, D. Costa has scored 2 goals in 7 matches.
