Chelsea striker Diego Costa has cleared out of his Surrey home.

The Mirror says he is carrying on planning for his Chelsea departure despite being no closer to having his exit sanctioned.

Costa, who took over Blues predecessor Fernando Torres' £6million former home in Surrey following his 2015 arrival, is desperate to escape after a huge bust-up with boss Antonio Conte.

And the 28 year-old has further underlined his determination to leave with a step that has left friends now openly saying he no longer has a house in England.

Spain international Costa is still in his homeland of Brazil and wants to re-sign for previous club Atletico Madrid.
