Judi Online - Jose Mourinho has revealed Diego Costa is out for the rest of the season - unless Chelsea spectacularly blow their Premier League title bid on Sunday.
The
Brazil-born Spain striker has missed the Blues' last four games since
suffering a recurrence of a hamstring problem against Stoke on April 4.
Asked whether he would feature again this season, Mourinho - whose side will be Champions if they beat Crystal Palace on Sunday - said: “There is a chance he might not. There is a chance he might not.
“If we win Sunday, I would say he doesn't play against Liverpool [next week].
“If
we don't win on Sunday and we need points against Liverpool, I'd say he
would play against them. It's about result after result, needs and
needs.
“If we don't need, probably he doesn't play (again). A long break? A
good period of work, rather. We are preparing a good working situation
for him during the holiday period where he can obviously mix the holiday
with work without fear.”
Costa, signed from Atletico Madrid last summer for £32million, has played a pivotal role in Chelsea’s surge to the brink of the Premier League title this season.
Bandar Bola - The marksman has hit 19 goals including nine in his first seven Premier League games.
But Mourinho, who has Loic Remy fit again after injury, maintains Costa is too valuable to risk if the club are able to win the League without him.
He
added: “It just it isn't worth the risk. In this process, in the last
month, if we lose a game – and we don't want to lose a second – he will
be back immediately.
“Immediately. Because the results in the
last month were always victories and a draw against the team in second,
we don't need to rush. We are trying to give him maximum stability for
him to be stronger and stronger. No need for any risk. Remy is back.”
