Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has revealed that striker Diego Costa could return to action for the final four matches of the Premier League season.
Costa suffered a hamstring injury in the 2-1 victory against Stoke City last weekend, and although there was suggestion that he could return within two weeks, Mourinho has insisted that he doesn't expect a return to take place until May 3.
The 52-year-old told reporters: "I think we have eight matches to play. If he plays four, it is normal.
"If he plays three, he is a bit below what I am expecting. If he plays five, that is more than I am expecting. I am not concerned."
Costa has scored 19 goals in 24 Premier League appearances this season.
