Benfica president Costa confirms Mourinho to stay at club next season despite rumours

Costa‚ 37‚ has yet to formally officially announce his retirement - despite being without a club since 2024 - and showed he still has plenty to offer as he opened the scoring in the star-studded Match for Hope. The former Spain international started the match with Hazard playing off his left‚ providing Chelsea fans with a nostalgic throwback to the pair's fruitful partnership at Stamford Bridge between 2014-2017.

'I ignore stupid people' - Conte hits back at Costa over 'no sex' jibe

Antonio Conte has hit back at Diego Costa after his former player's damning assessment of him during their time together at Chelsea. The pair enjoyed success in west London with Costa spearheading Conte's side to the 2016-17 Premier League title. However‚ that relationship soon deteriorated after a very public falling out that led to Costa going AWOL before re-joining Atletico Madrid in January 2018.

Diego Costa has bizarrely claimed Antonio Conte 'probably doesn't have sex at home' after labelling his former Chelsea manager as a 'very bitter guy' over their 2017 feud. Costa scored 59 goals in 120 games for the Blues across three seasons‚ while he also won two Premier League titles with the club. He left Chelsea in 2017 in acrimonious circumstances following a falling out with Conte. Conte had famously text Costa to suggest he wanted him to leave‚ with Costa then going absent without permission in Brazil.
