Costa subsequently pushed for a move to former club Atletico Madrid.

But no agreement was reached before the transfer window shut, leaving the Blues star in limbo.
Starsport understands Costa is set to return to west London for peace talks, as he cannot leave until January.
Hazard may get his wish as a result, with both eager to feature at the 2018 World Cup too.
“Diego and I have been playing together for three years,” Hazard told Marca.
“We won everything together except the Champions League.
“It is a pleasure to play with him: he is a top player and a top person.
“I would like to see him back, but I do not make the decisions.
“I hope we can find a solution and see him on the field soon.”
Alvaro Morata was brought in this summer from Real Madrid for a club-record £70m to replace Costa.

And on his new Chelsea team-mate, Hazard added: “I’ve never played with him and I'm looking forward to it.
“He is still very young, but he has won many titles with Juve and Madrid, so he has a lot of experience.
“We need this type of player, able to score many goals, and Alvaro can do it. We are happy with him.
“He is a good boy, talkative, even in English. We are looking forward to playing together.”
