Diego Costa is released as his contract with the club was revoked. Atletico announce on their website that they are terminating his contract following a mutual agreement between the two parties.

Last week, Diego Costa wanted to be allowed to leave the club due to personal reasons, and Atletico Madrid's management then allowed the striker to do so.

32-year-old Diego Costa had a contract with the Madrid club until next summer, but he will say goodbye half before it expires. He played 61 games and scored 12 goals in his second period at the club.

However, he will probably get a good deal as he has been rumored to the English league, where Mikel Arteta and Arsenal will bring the striker to the club.
