PFA Player of the Year Award: The case for Chelsea's Diego Costa

17 April 2015 02:48

PFA Players’ Player of the Year Nominee: Diego Costa

Club: Chelsea FC

National Team: Spain

DOB: 7/10/1988

Diego Costa arrived at Stamford Bridge with a big reputation and has more than justified Chelsea’s extensive efforts to secure his signature.

Costa is strong and his robust style is certainly suited to the rigours of the Premier League.

He made a great start to the season, scoring seven goals from his first four games and was voted the PFA Fans’ Player of the Month in August.

The 26-year-old scored 64 goals in 134 appearances during his spell with Atletico Madrid. At Chelsea Costa has been finding the net at a rate approaching a goal a game, as he sets his sights on adding a Barclays Premier League title to the La Liga crown he won with the Madrid club in 2014.
