Transfer gossip: Speculation continues over Costa and Lukaku
The Daily Star Sunday have picked up on reports in Italy suggesting that Chelsea striker Diego Costa could join Napoli or Inter Milan.
It is claimed that Costa’s agent has contacted Italian clubs ahead of a possible move for Costa, with Chelsea tipped to re-sign Romelu Lukaku from Everton.
The Star suggest Napoli is a more likely destination for the Spain international but that Inter could rival them.
The Sunday Telegraph say Chelsea have not made a bid for Lukaku despite recent reports that offers have been rejected.
Once again though it is suggested that Chelsea are keen to capture Lukaku and would like Loic Remy to move to Everton as part of the deal.
Meanwhile, the Sun on Sunday say Chelsea have had a £65m bid for Lukaku rejected and now plan to offer Remy and keeper Asmir Begovic to the Merseyside club.

For me, there is nothing wrong with Costa, only that he is too beligerent and fights with opponent while his team are losing. This is not good of him. However, he is still good for chelsea: he has good positioning and great scoring ability, with good and serious mieldfielders, Costa can score from any angle and at the least expected time. For these, Chelsea do not appear to have been in need of a striker at all.
Honestly speaking, the Blues are in serious need of defenders. The likes of Ivanovic, Cahil and even John Terry are no more hot as they make avoidable defensive errors. Chelsea should more serious this season because this season will be much tougher.
