London: New Chelsea striker Diego Costa said on Wednesday that manager Jose Mourinho has told him the team will play to his strengths next season.
“One of the main things he said was that he doesn’t want me to change,” the Brazil-born Spain striker told the club’s in-house television channel, Chelsea TV.
“It was Jose’s and the club’s decision to buy me and the reason they signed me was because of the way I played at Atletico (Madrid).
“I don’t feel I have to change much. I just have to improve fine details to become a better player. Hopefully I will have a similar season to the last one.” (AFP)
