Gus Poyet says he wants to take Diego Costa to China - but admits Shanghai Shenhua are unlikely to be in the hunt for the striker.

Chelsea striker Costa is being tipped to leave Stamford Bridge and is the subject of interest from numerous Chinese Super League clubs.

The 29-year-old could command a salary in excess of £500,000-per-week by moving to the Far East, and Chelsea are understood to be preparing for his departure this summer.
