"Liverpool" offers 24 million euros for Madrid's "Atletico" forward Diego Costa, BBC reports.
It is said that this exact amount is specified in the Brazil's player's contract, so he should soon start negotiations regarding the personal terms of the agreement.
This deal is not directly related to the future of Liverpool's leader Luis Suarez. In other words, Costa is not planned as a replacement for him. On the contrary, club officials hope that by acquiring an expensive player from Spain, they will convince the Uruguayan to stay in the team.
Last season, "Atletico's" forward scored 20 goals and made eight assists. He is known for his powerful physical build, but also stands out as a disciplined player who likes to provoke opponents.
