Chelsea forward Diego Costa insists he is not thinking about a move back to Atletico Madrid, adding that he is happy at Stamford Bridge.
Costa moved to the London outfit in the summer of 2014 and went on to enjoy a spectacular inaugural season in the Premier League as his 20 league goals fired Chelsea to their first league title in five years.
However, he was linked with a move back to the Vicente Calderon this summer amidst speculation that he was unsettled in London.
Costa has refuted such notions, saying that he never considered a return to Madrid and has started a new life in London. He also says he feels happy in England.
“I had a really good season last season, I was champion [of the Premier League] with Chelsea, so it was never in my head to leave”, he was quoted as saying by Spanish daily Sport.

“Everyone knows the affection I have for Atleti and that I love Madrid, but I have another life in London.
“I am happy at Chelsea.”
Costa has netted one goal so far in the league and will be eager to help the Blues retain the league title by the time the season comes to an end.
