Ibrahimovic has been released by Manchester United and is currently recovering from a knee injury, while Atletico have been exploring a deal to bring Costa back to the club.
However, with Atletico unable to sign players until January due to a transfer ban, Costa is reportedly concerned about a potential lack of regular football during a World Cup year.

A lack of movement over either of those deals has now led him to reuniting with a player he coached at Stamford Bridge.

Tottenham value Harry Kane close to £200 million following reports Manchester United were planning a £100m bid for the striker, according to The Independent.

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has reached out to Monaco striker Kylian Mbappe, according to Marca.

Arsenal are considering a swap deal that would see them allowing Alexis Sanchez to join Manchester City in exchange for Sergio Aguero, according to the Daily Star.
