The 30-year-old has allegedly fallen out with staff at the Wanda Metropolitano and could be on the move this summer.

The club were unimpressed with the actions that led to him picking up an eight-match ban at the end of 2018/19.

Costa has been with Atleti since transferring from Chelsea in 2018.

TBR’s view

Quite simply, Everton signing Costa would hand them a brilliant chance of breaking into the top six.

It would be a massive risk as the player appears to be something of a handful off the pitch as well as on it.

But there is no denying his quality.

He may now be 30 but two-time Premier League winner Costa remains a superb striker who is capable of winning games in his own.

Everton stuggled in front of goal last term but the 6ft 1in ace would absolutely fix the club’s issues and perhaps even fire Marco Silva’s side into Europe.
