ATK Mohun Bagan came into existence when ATK, one of the most successful teams in ISL merged with Mohun Bagan, one of the most iconic Indian football clubs. After merging, ATK Mohun Bagan has continued to perform at the highest level. They have some great players in their team.
Last year, ATKMB tried to sign former Chelsea and Atletico Madrid striker Diego Costa. But, he rejected the move as he wasn’t interested to come to India then.

However, things have once again heated up around ATKMB’s transfer business. According to reliable Indian transfer journalist, Marcus Mergulhao “ATK Mohun Bagan are still warming up with their transfer business. There is work to do. If all goes according to plan, ATK Mohun Bagan will bring a NAME to India who no one would have imagined. Just ATKMB things!”
So are ATKMB trying to sign Diego Costa once again this season?
Diego Costa is currently a free agent after leaving Atletico Mineiro at the start of 2022. He helped them win the Brazilian league and domestic cup and scored 5 goals. The Spanish striker has been an integral part of Atletico Madrid and Chelsea during his playing days.
So, if ATK Mohun Bagan manages to bring the 33-year-old to India, it will be a great move for Indian football as many other famous footballers would grow interest to come and play in India and follow his footsteps.
Diego Costa has played at the highest level in football and playing alongside him would also benefit the Indian players. However, things are not yet confirmed and we would have to wait with our fingers crossed.
