It has come to notice that Costa has been put on sale this summer by Atletico. And the chance to sign the player up has been handed over to Spurs. Having worked with Costa at Chelsea previously as well, it is believed that Jose Mourinho and Costa share a close connection even now. In 37 games of the first season under Mourinho, Costa had managed to hit 21 goals, reflecting the spirit and physicality that Spur's boss adores. Tottenham does appear to be in the need of another striker this summer as a cover for Harry Kane is required. However, Costa is no more the player he once had been at Chelsea.
