The Mirror reported in April that Tottenham Hotspur are planning to try and sign the 26-year-old this summer.
A value of £30 million was touted in The Mirror‘s article. The price of £34.8 million (40 million Euros) means he would become Tottenham’s record signing.
Costa is one of the highest profile wingers linked to Tottenham this summer.
