Diego Costa has escalated speculation linking him with a free transfer to Arsenal by terminating his contract with Atletico Mineiro.
The striker, 33, enjoyed a brief but successful five-month stint with the Belo Horizonte club, winning the Brasileiro (top flight) and the Copa do Brasil.
Costa signed a contract until December 2022 when he joined in August last year following the mutual termination of his deal at Atletico Madrid.
