Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Douglas
Costa has reiterated his desire to join
Chelsea and believes Jose Mourinho is
currently the best manager in the
world.
In an exclusive interview with Goal in
February, the 24-year-old revealed that Chelsea had been in contact
over a potential move before the club signed Juan Cuadrado from
Fiorentina.
But ahead of the summer transfer window, Costa admits he is keen to
leave the Ukrainian champions and insists Stamford Bridge is his
preferred destination.
"I'd be really interested in moving to Chelsea – not only because
everything Willian tells me about the club, but because I think that I'd
be able to achieve everything I want having someone like Jose
Mourinho by my side," Costa told FourFourTwo .
"Since I left Brazil, I have worked with a marvellous coach [Mircea
Lucescu] and got an idea of how much influence such a good
professional can have in your football. Now I think it's time to try a
new philosophy and I'm sure that Mourinho's is the best around. He's
always fighting for trophies.
"Besides that, I'd have the chance to play in the Premier League, the
best league in the world. What really impresses me is that you never
know which team will win – that's a factor that always keeps athletes
motivated." source: goal |
