Chelsea boss Mourinho wants FOUR Atletico Madrid stars

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho wants to tempt FOUR of Atletico Madrid's Champions League finalists to Stamford Bridge. The Telegraph says Mourinho is confident of finalising the £32 million transfer of Atlético Madrid striker Diego Costa now that the Champions League final is out of the way, but he will still look to add more goals to his squad.

Other than signing Costa and bringing goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois back to the club, Chelsea are interested in two more Atlético players.

Left-back Filipe Luis is one of the options being looked at as a replacement for Ashley Cole, while central defender Joao Miranda is being considered to help replace David Luiz and put pressure on captain John Terry.
