By , Reporter
Spain striker Diego Costa confirms that it "looks like" he will be leaving Atletico Madrid in the summer to join Chelsea after La Roja's friendly win over El Salvador.

Atletico Madrid striker Diego Costa has seemingly confirmed that he will be joining Chelsea next season.

The 25-year-old made his first return to action since the Champions League final in the 2-0 win over El Salvador in a friendly on Saturday.

After the match, the Spain international, who has been consistently linked with Jose Mourinho's side, appeared to confirm that he will be leaving the Primera Division champions for the Premier League, with Stamford Bridge being his destination.

Speaking after the friendly victory, Costa told AS: "Am I going to Chelsea? It looks like it."

Costa scored 27 goals for Atletico in La Liga last season, helping them to their first league title in 18 years.
