“Atletico Madrid and Diego Costa have reached an agreement for the termination of the striker’s contract, which expires on June 30, 2021,” the club said in a statement.
The 32-year-old Brazilian striker, who has opted 24 times for Spain after betting twice on friendlys for his native country, had asked to leave the club for “personal reasons”.
Costa arrived at Atletico in 2006 at the age of 17, then played 215 games in two terms (2010-14 and 2018-20) in a three-season appearance at Chelsea, scoring 83 goals and offering 36 assists.
During his time at Atletico, Costa was part of a team that won a La Liga name in the 2013–14 season, a Copa del Rey (2013), a Europa League (2018) and two UEFA Super Cups (2010 and 2018).
“The club thanks Diego Costa for his determination during those years and wishes him the best for the next level of his professional career,” the club said.
