Atlético Madrid is planning on keeping Diego Costa through the summer transfer window.

Costa has received interest from a host of more wealthy clubs, most notably Chelsea. Costa has scored 35 goals in all competitions.

"Last year we wanted to consolidate the group of players that we currently have," said sporting director Jose Luis Caminero in an interview with Movistar.

"We renewed the contracts of pretty much all of them, including Diego Costa.

"Our minds are set on keeping this group of players together and steadily bring in one or two more, who can reinforce what we're doing with our project.

"We want all our big players to stay and we're planning for next season with him."
