Jorge Mendes has left the door open to AC Milan as Diego Costa pushes to leave Chelsea this summer.

Costa, 28, wants to return to former club Atletico Madrid but the Spanish side are unable to sign him until January due to a transfer ban.

That has sparked Milan's interest, and the star's representative has done nothing to dampen rumours of a switch to the San Siro.

Mendes told Sky Sport Italia: “Diego Costa to Milan? What I talk to Milan about, I won't tell the press…"

And just yesterday, the striker declared: “Milan are a fantastic club, with an impressive history."
