Details of the message sent by Chelsea manager Antonio Conte that caused striker Diego Costa to announce he was not wanted by the club have been revealed.

Costa, 28, said on Wednesday that he had learned he was no longer part of the Premier League champions' plans.
The Italian manager had sent a text to his players wishing them a good holiday and telling them to stay fit and, after Costa replied in a jokey way, the 28-year-old was told he was no longer in the manager's plans.

The Spain international then showed the exchange to fellow players.
Costa scored 20 goals in 35 Premier League games to help the Blues win the title but now appears not to have a future at Stamford Bridge.
"My relationship with the coach has been bad this season," said Costa.

He added after Spain's 2-2 draw with Colombia: "It is a shame, I have already forwarded the message to Chelsea people to decide."
