‘He ain’t come here has he?’ -Watch Wolves fan’s hilarious reaction after being told Diego Costa transfer is close

A stunned Wolves supporter reacted hilariously to the revelation that Diego Costa looks set to join the club.

The former Chelsea striker, 33, arrived at Wanderers' training ground on Thursday to undergo a medical ahead of a shock free transfer.

But one Wolves fan was totally unaware the deal was in the works when he was interviewed on TV.

Speaking on after being told about the imminent transfer, he said: "Who, Diego Costa? He ain't come here, has he?"

When told the striker was currently undergoing his medical, the flabbergasted fan added: "I wasn't aware. I saw something on Facebook but I thought it was fake news.

"That's absolutely brilliant news. I thought the transfer window was over."

Costa has been a free agent since having his contract terminated by Brazilian side Atletico Mineiro in January.

And that is why Wolves can sign him outside of the transfer window - which shut last week - as he is not affiliated with another club.

The deal comes after his work permit was initially rejected - a decision which was appealed by the English club.

Costa has not played in the Premier League since he left Chelsea in 2017.

During his three seasons with the Blues, the ex-Spain international scored a thoroughly impressive 59 goals in 120 appearances.

The robust forward also won the Premier League twice - under Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte - and claimed a League Cup winner's medal.

He then re-joined Atletico Madrid for a second spell where he won the LaLiga title in 2021 - albeit while playing a bit-part role.

Leaving Diego Simeone's side last year, he joined South American outfit Mineiro and netted five times in 19 games before having his contract ripped up.

He has not played a competitive match since December.
