Diego Costa is a two-time Premier League winner, a Chelsea cult hero, and a man who gave many a defender sleepless nights He remains, however, somewhat of an enigma.

In this exclusive interview, Diego sits down with his former Chelsea team-mate John Obi Mikel and Chris McHardy to set the record straight. Is he the snarling, aggressive man we see on the pitch or simply misunderstood?

So, why did he leave Chelsea? And what does he REALLY think of the man who engineered his exit: Antonio Conte? Unsurprisingly for a man who never backed down from a fight on the pitch, he doesn’t hold back.

Costa also outlines what makes Diego Simeone and José Mourinho so special, has his say on his bad boy image label, and takes us back to the night of the infamous Battle of the Bridge against Tottenham.

He also explains why Didier Drogba will always be ‘God’ and names the striker he’d pick ahead of Erling Haaland today.

Hold onto your hats, folks, for this unfiltered and unflinching conversation with a Blues great. It’s Diego Costa unleashed.

  1. Better player than Haaland, best 9 in the league since Van Persie, Chelsea didn't win the league since Ancelotti. Cesc gets a lot of credit but Costa was unstoppable, he was very unlucky not to have won the UCL in 2014. Di Maria was unstoppable that day but Diego Costa for me always felt like a Real Madrid player for me. Costa has been forgotten about but give him his flowers. Best striker in the league since Van Persie, Haaland is a better goalscorer but goes missing to much.

  2. He is the last proper stiker of Chelsea. Now we are not a top club anymore, Egbaly and BlueCo they have ruined our club within such a short time 😞
