Antonio Conte has made a shocking u-turn & added Diego Costa in Chelsea's 25-man Premier League team for the forthcoming campaign in spite of making it clear that the Brazil-born Spain international is not in his plans.

The reigning Premier League champions revived their league campaign with back-to-back wins over Tottenham Hotspur & Everton after their shock opening day loss to Burnley.

It remains to be seen if Costa will return to Stamford Bridge & make himself available for selection, but he’s been named in the Premier League team for this season.

Every club have to submit a 25-man squad of which only 17 can be non-home grown players.
