Diego Costa insists he is happy at Atletico Madrid.

Diego Costa claims he is keen to stay at Atletico Madrid despite interest from Liverpool.

Liverpool launched a £21.8million bid last week for the 24-year-old forward, who scored 20 goals in 44 matches for the Spanish club last season.

But Costa insists he is happy at the Vicente Calderon and has not heard of any plans from Liverpool to lure him away.

"I'm well here, I'm happy here," said the Brazil international.

"As I've been in Argentina and Uruguay, I've not heard anything about this.

"I'm happy here, if the club want me to be here, I'm going to be here.

"I think that the coach (Diego Simeone) counts on all of us, not just me. He knows how important it is to maintain the squad, the fans know it as well."
