Chelsea striker Diego Costa has clearly lowered his foot since the beginning of 2017 and he also has a very good perform during the first part of the season. What does it matter for the Chinese Super League Tanjin Quanjian, always determined to recruit the Spanish. To land Costa, Tianjin Quanjian could offer him an annual salary about 40 million euros.
Goaltender 14 times in the Premier League during the first part of season, the striker has scored only three times since last January. He turned to the side the following week and helped Chelsea close in the English Premier League title.
Tianjin Quanjian has never hidden their interest for Diego Costa. Last winter, the Chinese club had even launched a first offensive of 94 million euros, but it refused by Chelsea. However, nearly three months later, things have changed. The title on track, Chelsea could decide to give up their player, which has often displayed his desires elsewhere in the past.
According to the report, Tanjin Quanjian owner Shu Yuhui would have the idea to return to the charge for Diego Costa. And the offer announced has enough to give the spin. Indeed, the current 6th place in the Chinese Super League table could propose the 28-year-old with 777, 000 euros per week.
However, Tianjin Quanjian owner refused to rule out a move for Costa. “We are working on bringing in more big-name players,” Yuhui told media. “We expect the best. However, the best players want to go to clubs such as Bayern Munich or Real Madrid. Our targeted players are also being chased by these clubs, so we may need to pay more.” he added.

On the other hand, SFR Sport says that the Blues could be greedy and will not let the player go unless their get 150 million euros from Tianjin Quanjian. Not sure that Chelsea management are going to be difficult if Tianjin offers such a nice check as last winter. Indeed, to replace Diego- Costa, Everton’s Romelu Lukaku seems the designated favorite since he would have decided to return to Stamford Bridge at this summer.
