Chelsea outcast Diego Costa insists no grudge against Alvaro Morata

Chelsea outcast Diego Costa insists he holds no grudge against Spain teammate Alvaro Morata.

The former Real Madrid striker has joined Chelsea as a replacement for Costa.

But Costa told the Daily Mail: "Alvaro Morata is a great player.

"He had a big season in Madrid and at the sight of this completely crazy mercado, I really think they have this young and talented striker at a good price.

"He will triumph at Chelsea."

Morata scored on his Premier League debut in defeat to Burnley on Sunday.
