MadridUpdate:
Diego Costa will not be able to pull on the red-and-white stripes of Atlético Madrid until January, as a result of the club's transfer ban. The Brazil-born Spain international is working at full capacity to ensure he is match-fit when the time comes to make his second debut.

Costa is working at the Cerro del Espino stadium, which Atlético reserves share with lower-league side Rayo Majadahonda, with notoriously demanding fitness coach Profe Ortega.
And on top of that, the 29-year-old is working out gyms owned by his Atleti team-mate Fernando Torres.
