Diego Costa: Ian Wright questions Chelsea striker's version of events
Costa claims Chelsea manager Antonio Conte texted the striker earlier this summer to say he would be sold.
Costa is back in his native Brazil and is refusing to train with the Chelsea squad, claiming he is being treated “like a criminal”.
He also revealed he was close to signing a new contract back in January before interest in his services from the Chinese Super League emerged.
But Wright isn’t sure the true events of Costa’s transfer saga have fully come out.
“Something has happened. When you look at the character of the player we are dealing with he could have irked a couple of people,” Wright said on 5Live.
