More than two-and-a-half million Besiktas fans have commented on one of Diego Costa's Instagram pictures imploring the striker to join their club this summer.

Costa is on the lookout for a new team after being told by manager Antonio Conte that he is not in his plans at Chelsea, despite scoring 20 goals to help fire the Blues to the Premier League title last season.

The Spain international has made no secret of his desire to return to Atletico Madrid, but such a move would not be possible until January due to the Spanish giants currently being banned from signing players.

Besiktas fans have now moved to convince Costa to make the switch to Turkey instead, besieging his Instagram with millions of comments - the majority of which simply say "come to Besiktas".


Costa has scored 59 goals in 120 appearances for Chelsea since joining the club in 2014.
