Atletico Madrid star Stefan Savic would welcome a move for Diego Costa
“There is not much else to say about him.”
Atletico’s FIFA-imposed transfer ban is similar to the one Barca were put under in 2015.
Barca signed Arda Turan that summer and the player spent six months with the squad without making an appearance until the New Year.
There is a proposal for Costa to join Atletico - as Turan did to Barcelona - but then head out on loan somewhere for six months, with AC Milan a viable option.

Diego Costa: Conte told me I’m not in his plans anymore
His agent Jorge Mendes has supposedly urged the striker to move to the San Siro, with half an eye on him playing for Spain in the World Cup next summer.
But Costa himself isn’t keen on a move to Italy - even if it is for the short term.
Chelsea want £50million for Costa but may have to lower that fee closer to the transfer deadline.
Alvaro Morata has already been brought in to replace the 28-year-old and Chelsea are keen to get Costa’s £185,000-a-week salary off their wage bill.
