Spanish striker Diego Costa is close to returning to his native Brazil to his favourite club Palmeiras.
Costa, 32, is reportedly on the verge of signing a two-year deal with the Sao Paulo-based giants, who he has supported since he was a child.
Palmeiras are willing to pay the ex-Chelsea forward around £2.6million a year after tax, according to Sky Sports.
Costa is currently in Brazil as a free agent after agreeing to terminate his contract with Atletico Madrid in December, six months early, due to personal reasons.
