DIEGO COSTA JOINS WOLVES ON FREE TRANSFER

Wolves have signed former Chelsea and Atletico Madrid striker Diego Costa on Monday on a season-long deal.

The 33-year-old has been without a club since leaving Brazilian side Atletico Mineiro in January.
Wolves were in need of attacking options after new signing Sasa Kalajdzic suffered a cruciate knee ligament injury on his debut against Southampton penultimate week.

Wolves have scored just three goals in their opening six games of the Premier League season and sit 14th in the table with six points.

Costa scored 59 goals in 120 games for Chelsea in his previous spell in England, leading the Blues to two Premier League titles.

But his career has also been dogged by a series of on-field outbursts and he has struggled to reach the heights of his time at Chelsea and first spell at Atletico since leaving London in 2017.
