Chelsea to finalise Costa deal this week?

Chelsea will reportedly finalise a £32m deal to bring Atletico Madrid star Diego Costa to Stamford Bridge this week.

The Brazilian-born Spanish international, who helped guide Atletico to the La Liga title last season, has been linked with a move to the Blues for some time.

According to the Daily Star, Chelsea were concerned that the move could be delayed due to the forward's hamstring injury, but it is believed that Costa will have a medical in the next few days.

Despite the 25-year-old's injury woes, Costa has been included in Spain's travelling party for the World Cup in Brazil next week.

Meanwhile, reports have claimed that Chelsea are also interested in signing Costa's Atletico teammates Filipe Luis and Diego Godin.
