Top six club moves for Diego Costa – Could it be West Ham?
Speculation is rife after Sky Sports an unnamed top-six Premier League club has offered Diego Costa the chance to sign for them on a deal until the end of the season.
Fifth placed West Ham have been often linked with the former Chelsea striker and speculation on social media and once again linked them.
Costa, who is a free agent, wants a two-and-a-half-year deal worth around £13m over its duration which equates to £450,000 per month or over £112,000 per week. He has had interest from clubs in Turkey, Qatar and Saudi Arabia but no club has yet agreed terms. The wages demands alone make West Ham an unlikely destination.
It has been suggested that sixth place Spurs instead is more possible destination for Diego Costa. Tottenham are currently without star striker Harry Kane due to an ankle injury he picked up in the 3-1 loss to Liverpool last Thursday. It is not yet known how long the England captain may be out for, though reports claim he could return before the end of February.
