Diego Costa has been told he has no future at Chelsea and is expected to complete a move away from Stamford Bridge before tonight’s 11pm deadline.

Swansea are reportedly resigned to losing the 32-year-old and are on the hunt for a replacement with Chelsea believed to be the favourites for his signature.
But it is said Mauricio Pochettino is quietly confident they can steal Llorente from under Chelsea’s noses.
