Chelsea's  forward, Diego Costa, is refusing to move to any other team except his old club, Atletico Madrid and is ready to confront his coach, Antonio Conte.

With the existing transfer ban on Atletico Madrid till January 2018 being a hindrance to Costa's move to the club,AC Milan and Juventus are keen on signing him into the Seria A

A source close to Costa reported that he, Costa, has no intention of going to Italy (Juventus, Milan) and is willing to stay at Chelsea until he returns to the Spanish capital.

This means the Spanish striker will be seen at Stamford Bridge till half of the season.

Costa, who was offered big money for a transfer to China last season but refused, has made it clear to the former Juventus and Italy coach that he was no longer part of his plans via text message and was happy to make the content of the message public.

Conte endured a rocky relationship last season with Costa as his antics were upsetting him.

Now he would have no other option than to endure him till January when Atletico Madrid’s ban will be lifted.

The Italian, Conte, is already seen eyeing the Everton striker, Romelu Lukaku to replace Diego Costa and is angling to strike a deal with the Everton side for 50 million Euros.
