Diego Costa
showed no signs of being bothered by his troublesome hamstring as he
trained ahead of Spain's Euro 2016 qualifiers against Slovakia and
Luxembourg.
The Chelsea forward was joined by club-mate Cesc Fabregas and fellow Premier League stars David Silva and David de Gea.
Vicente
del Bosque's team crushed Macedonia 5-1 in their opening qualifier and
now turn their attention to Slovakia and Luxembourg.

their superb understanding at club level to the international stage as
Spain face Slovakia and Luxembourg in the next few days
Costa,
who has scored nine times in nine matches for Chelsea this season, has
struggled for goals when leading the line for Spain. He has failed to
hit the back of the net in five games for his country but this is not an
issue that worries his international team-mates.
'He
has told me he is looking forward to scoring. At the moment they aren't
coming but after the first then they will start to flow,' said Koke,
Costa's former team-mate at Atletico Madrid.
'He
is a goalscorer and it will work out with the national team. In England
he is scoring from everywhere and it has worked out for him to go
there.
'Diego
has to fit in with us but also we have to find him when he has space
and can get free. With his movement he has the ability to get one-on-one
with the keeper.'
