Besiktas coach Senol Gunes has admitted interest in Chelsea striker Diego Costa.
Besiktas president Fikret Orman is said to have made Costa his No 1 target this summer as he looks to build a squad capable of competing in the Champions League.
And Gunes has now confirmed the Turkish giants are in for the Spain international, although they do not expect a deal to be straightforward.
"Then there is Diego Costa, I want him but it will not be easy to pull off," Gunes told reporters at Besiktas' Nevzat Demir training ground.
“If Diego is open to coming I would not say no.
"I could not refuse such a striker."
