Chelsea striker could make stunning £70m summer move to China

Chelsea striker Diego Costa is ready to jump on the latest bandwagon and join former teammate Ramires in China. According to this report in the Telegraph yesterday night, the Spaniard is almost set to leave Stamford Bridge in the summer. It had looked earlier like a return to Atletico Madrid was on the cards, but the story has taken a stunning turn to Asia.

The 27 year-old joined Chelsea last summer and has an impressive scoring record with the Blues, netting 31 times in the Premier League in 50 appearances. He was a talisman in their title win last season, and also scored the crucial second goal in the final of the League Cup en route to victory.
