Diego
Costa suffered a scare after he hurt his foot and ankle in Spain's training
session on Sunday but tests have confirmed the Chelsea striker did not
suffer a serious injury.
The Spanish federation said doctors will continue to monitor Costa's injury
but he will remain with the national team for the friendly match against
France in Paris on Tuesday.
Costa underwent a series of tests after he was forced to leave the session,
having scored in Friday's 4-1 win over Israel in their World Cup Qualifier.
The 28-year-old has been in prolific form this season, scoring 22 goals in
35 appearances for club and country, and any injury would have come as a
blow to Chelsea boss Antonio Conte as his side closes on the Premier League
title.
Chelsea play London rivals Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge on April 1 when
the Premier League resumes after the international break before they face
Manchester City at home four days later.
