Diego Costa insists he is currently ‘very happy’ at Chelsea, but before admitted that he does not enjoy life in London.
Costa has undoubtedly not been shy regarding his desire to return to Atletico Madrid in the past and Costa caused further confusion after speaking to French publication SFR Sport.
The 28-year-old was left out of the match day squad for a trip to Leicester City but returned to action the following weekend and scored in a routine home victory over Hull City.
I have another two years on my contract,’ the striker told SFR Sport.
‘I am always very honest with those close to me. I tell them that I am very happy at Chelsea.
‘The club gives me a lot, the fans, the team-mates. I am in a team that is winning and that motivates me even more. Last season was not the best, not just for me but for other players and for Chelsea.
‘This year I hope will be different, that we win titles. If you are in a team that is winning, you always want to stay for the allotted amount of time.
‘I am happy at Chelsea, I am not necessarily saying that I am happy with my life in London, but that is something completely different. It has nothing to do with it.’
