Thegoalmac can reveal that Diego Costa's club versus country row rumbles on after Spain's team doctor insisted the Chelsea striker did not pick up a fresh injury on international duty.
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho laid the blame for Costa's current absence on his involvement with Vicente del Bosque's side, but Spain team doctor Juan Jose Garcia Cota has refuted those claims.
Continue for what the Spanish doctor said about Costa and tell us what you think about this saga.
"This time he [Costa] didn't say anything about the hamstring," Cota told IBTimes UK. "When
Costa arrived to the international team he said to us he had a minor
hassle in the groin but that it was nothing important.
"He probably had played with it before for Chelsea and he didn't complain any more about it during the inte
rnational duty.
"He was treated by the physios [like every other player] and didn't have any limitations when doing exercises.
"I wouldn't even say it was an injury or a problem. It was a very minor
hassle that is very common in every professional footballer. He didn't
even ask for treatment and didn't require a scan or anything similar."
