Diego Costa negotiates with Palmeiras

Diego Costa is very close to becoming a Palmeiras player. The former Atlético striker, who has been without a team since leaving the mattress club last December, is in negotiations to sign for the Brazilian club, according to Sky Sports. The São Paulo team, which has just finished the Club World Cup in fourth place, offers the Hispanic-Brazilian a contract for two two seasons and a token of 2.5 million euros net.

Diego Costa is currently in Brazil and is personally leading the negotiations with the Palmeiras. For the former Atlético striker, signing for the São Paulo club is very special, since he has been his supporter since he was a child. Diego Costa's beginnings as a footballer were developed in the lower categories of Barcelona Esportivo Capela, in the city of Sao Paulo. At that time, the Spanish international dreamed of one day playing at Palmeiras. That dream can come true soon.

Diego Costa has had proposals from Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Turkey, But the emotional factor seems to outweigh the economic one, at the moment, for Diego Costa, who could thus put an end to his brilliant career playing for Palmeiras.
