Diego Costa Reportedly Wants to Leave Atletico Madrid for China Transfer

Atletico Madrid forward Diego Costa is reportedly unhappy at the club and is keen to move to the Chinese Super League.

According to El Mundo (h/t Football Espana), the former Chelsea man isn't content with his contract in comparison to star striker Antoine Griezmann.

Costa is said to earn around €8.5 million (£7.6 million) every year with the Madrid outfit, whereas the new deal Griezmann signed in the summer sees him take home a staggering €25 million (£22.25 million).

It's added that Costa has asked his agent to look into possible destinations for him as a result, most notably a January move to China.
