Key journalist confirms Chelsea star is in talks over staggering transfer to China

It’s been a superb season down at Stamford Bridge for Chelsea and their supporters here in the pub can smell the Premier League title!

You have to admit that crown is moving closer and closer to the Bridge after Tottenham’s loss to West Ham United last night and there will be few Blues fans that think Spurs will catch them now.

But with the title nearly in the bag and the season going down as a real success, attention will now turn to the summer and who needs to be sold at the club.

And one man that has been seriously linked with a move away from the club in recent weeks is Spanish striker Diego Costa.

Now, French journalist Johnny Severin has confirmed that a staggering 100million Euro deal is in the offing between the Blues and Chinese outfit Tianjin Quanjian.

The reporter, who works for SFR Sport in France tweeted details of the eye-watering deal, which would certainly make Costa one of the biggest players to have ever made the jump to Chinese football.

Former team-mates Oscar and Ramires are already playing their football in the up-and-coming nation.
