D. Costa: Conte doesn't want to see me among "Chelsea" ranks

Chelsea sniper Diego Costa insists he has no future in London. Despite scoring 22 goals this season, the Spaniard has been constantly linked with a move away, with many assuming he would transfer to China this summer. However, the 28-year-old recently expressed his desire to stay among the "aristocrats", but according to him, team manager Antonio Conte has different plans. "I received a short message from Conte on the phone, saying that he does not count on me for next season," Costa said after Spain's draw with Colombia. "This is because I had a bad season. Too bad. I sent a message to people at the club for them to decide, but it's clear the coach doesn't expect anything from me and doesn't want to see me there." "I'm in the market, so I'm looking for a team. If the coach doesn't want you, you have to leave." Costa has previously mentioned that he would like to return to Atletico Madrid, but he may have to wait until winter as the "mattresses" are currently banned from registering new players.
