Costa is currently a free agent after terminating his contract with Atletico Mineiro at the beginning of the year.

The club won a domestic double with Costa managing five goals in 19 appearances.

Mundo Deportivo says Rayo have offered the 33-year-old a contract.

Costa knows the club well, having spent some time on loan there back in 2012.
