Atletico Madrid and Chelsea are to meet this week to discuss the futures of Romelu Lukaku and Diego Costa.
AS claim that Costa will confirm his move to the Premier League while in a separate deal, Lukaku could move to Vicente Calderon on loan.
It’s not a swap deal for the strikers, AS clarifies, but rather they are related in that Atletico will only confirm Costa’s departure when they’re sure of having a replacement – Lukaku.
The future of Filipe Luis, Atletico’s Brazilian left-back who is wanted by Chelsea, won’t be discussed.
Filipe has been offered a contract by Atletico, since rejected, but Atleti insist if the Blues want to sign him, they have to meet his €24m release clause.
