Despite recent negative headlines
over Chelsea Striker, Diego Costa, Goalkeeper, Thibbaut Courtois has said there
is no doubt to the striker’s commityment to the team.
Costa is expected to play in the Super Sunday clash with Hull
after being dropped from the squad for last Saturday's 3-0 victory over
Leicester.
Although the official reason given for his absence then was a back
injury, rumours have it that Costa was involved in a training ground row with
manager Antonio Conte following a £30m-a-year offer from Chinese Super League
side Tianjin Quanjian.
But
Courtois believes Costa was injured and insists the Chelsea squad have no
doubts over his loyalty.
"He looks very committed, we
cannot doubt that about Diego. You can see that in all games he plays.
"Nobody in this team doubted it, so when the day before the
game against Leicester that came out it was a bit of a surprise to the players
but it didn't affect us in any way because we know what's the truth. The rest
is maybe just trying to destabilise Chelsea, but we don't let it."
