Diego Costa |
A former Tottenham Hotspur striker, Darren Bent, has urged
three Premier League clubs to make a move for Diego Costa ahead of the January
transfer window.
The clubs are Tottenham, Wolves, and Everton.
Costa had terminated his contract with Atletico Madrid on
Tuesday after mutual consent, describing it as the best moment for him and the
club to part ways.
The player added that he has given his best to Diego
Simeone’s side.
“Especially now his [Diego Costa’s] contract has been ripped
up, and you do not have to pay any money for him,” Bent told talkSPORT, adding
his fitness is still good and has bags of experience in England.
“Spurs would take him, Wolves would, even someone like
Everton on the off chance something happens to [Dominic] Calvert-Lewin,” Bent
added.
Costa, who returned to Atletico from Chelsea in 2018, scored
just 19 goals in 81 matches in his second spell with the La Liga giants.
