Chelsea stars pictured leaving London nightclub at 3am after partying with boxing champ James DeGale

Three of Chelsea's top stars were pictured leaving a plush London nightclub at gone 3am on Wednesday night.

Diego Costa, Ramires and Kenedy were all snapped departing the exclusive Libertine night spot near Oxford Circus.

The players were also joined by world champion boxer James DeGale, who was enjoying his night upon his return to the UK following his world title defence over Lucian Bute.

Costa, wearing a grey jumper, jeans and black Converse trainers, hopped into a waiting car before being whisked off home when he left the venue.

Ramires appeared to initially try to cover his face while he was being ushered out by the security guards.

And Kenedy appeared to have to balance by leaning on a parked-up sports car upon his late night exit from the club.

Libertine is a popular location for footballers to relax during their downtime.

In years gone by, Frank Lampard, Marouane Fellaini, Ashley Cole, Aaron Ramsey and Bacary Sagna have all been pictured enjoying a night at the venue.

Chelsea's night on the town comes after they recorded their third game without a defeat last weekend.

The goalless draw with Tottenham Hotspur was coupled with a 4-0 Champions League win over Maccabbi Tel Aviv and a 1-0 triumph over Norwich.

But boss Jose Mourinho remains under pressure as he bids to take the Blues back to the top half of the table.

Chelsea still sit in 14th place, just five points off the drop zone and 12 points from the top four.
