Diego Costa is returning to the Premier League for a second stint after signing a one-year contract with Wolves.
The former Atletico Madrid man has been a free agent since leaving Atletico Mineiro in January of this year.
His work permit was initially not granted because of his lack of international games of late but those issues were resolved and he subsequently passed his medical.
Costa, 33, is of course very much a familiar face for fans of teams in the Premier League given his eventful spell with
Chelsea.

He signed for the Blues in a £32 million switch, having just come off a stunning 36-goal season for Atletico Madrid in 2013/14, where Diego Simeone's side delivered the club's first league title since 1996.
That deal, along with the shrewd capture of Cesc Fabregas, brought Jose Mourinho's third Premier League title in west London.

Costa was well and truly unplayable from the moment he made his first start against Burnley at Turf Moor and he hit seven goals in his first four Premier League games.
The Spain international played on the edge and caused chaos for opposition defenders.
His power and physical presence gave Chelsea a perfect focal point for the rest of the team to play off and he was essentially Mourinho's new Didier Drogba.

Costa was also a stone-cold killer in front of goal, bagging 20 goals in his first season in the English top flight.
A man for the clutch moments, he scored the second goal in the League Cup win over Spurs at Wembley.
Costa would then fire Chelsea to another league title two years later when he hit 21 goals for Antonio Conte in 2016/17.

However, he had a huge bust-up with the Italian and ending up being sold back to Atletico after months of limbo.
Costa scored 19 times in 81 games during his second stretch with Los Rojiblancos and we're excited to see what madness he can conjure up back in the English top flight.
