"Jose has called me, direct to my phone, just to check am okay and to see how i am. He wished me good luck, "the 28 years old told the daily mail.

"I never had any problems with Jose, we had a strong relationship.
"Everyone was very sad when things didn't workout in the end for him at chelsea ."
Costa also says that he still has the support of many colleagues at Stamford Bridge, with Conte the one to have taken the decision to freeze him out.
He added; "you know that the manager doesn't want me. am waiting for chelsea to set me free. i didn't want to leave. i was happy. when the manager does not want you, you have to go.
"If you were to ask all my team mate, they would say the same, they send message saying "i miss you" and that they love me."
