Diego Costa could be in hot water with Jose Mourinho after pictures have emerged of him partying in Ibiza hours after Chelsea’s match on Saturday.
Chelsea drew 2-2 at home to Swansea at the weekend in a match where they took the lead twice. Costa played the full game despite continuing to suffer from a hamstring injury that has dogged him over the past two seasons.
Most injured players would put their feet up but instead Costa hopped on a flight to Spain the next day and there are now pictures of him in Ibiza with Italian DJ Benny Benassi.
Jose Mourinho has made no comment about the incident but was full of praise for Costa shortly after the game on Saturday.
“He (Costa) did very well. The second half was very difficult because it was a big difference, one player less and a lot of effort. Even so I was not expecting him to resist for 90 minutes,” Mourinho said. “Because we wanted to try to get a goal we went with him until the end and it was very important and new for us that he played for 90 minutes with such a physical performance.”
