One major move certainly has a massive influence.
Atletico Madrid faced an uncertain future this summer, as a FIFA ban held the club back from making any signings during the transfer period. But Los Rojiblancos have begun the campaign in fine form, and reinforcements will be arriving at the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano in January.
SBOBET Outcast Chelsea striker Diego Costa has been signed by Atletico, following the two sides coming to an agreement on fees. The 28-year-old will join manager Diego Simeone’s squad as the team’s most expensive signing in club history, reported to be in the region of €65 million.
Costa returns to Los Colchoneros after a dramatic and bizarre ending to his time at Stamford Bridge, and he will certainly feel positive amongst former team-mates.The Spanish international scored 36 goals across all competitions in his final season with Madrid, and confidence for more success should be present.
The club are currently third in the league table through the opening five fixtures in La Liga.
But the unique aspect will be his relationship with Antoine Griezmann at the top of the line-up, and the effects that the partnership may have on the team in the coming months.
