Despite his advancing age, former Atlético Madrid and Chelsea striker Diego Costa isn’t ready to hang up his boots. Following his departure from Brazilian side Grêmio, the 36-year-old Spanish-Brazilian forward already has a new opportunity on the horizon.
Details: According to Mundo Deportivo, Costa has drawn interest from Real Valladolid, a club he previously represented during the 2009–2010 season. Reinforcing their squad would be straightforward for Valladolid, as Costa became a free agent on January 1.
It is believed that the club, owned by Ronaldo, will offer Costa a six-month contract, and the player is reportedly keen to finalize the deal.
Reminder: In 34 La Liga matches for Real Valladolid, Costa scored eight goals. However, he is best known for his successful stint with Atlético Madrid, where he won the Spanish league title.
