Celta Vigo winger Nolito, Juventus striker Álvaro Morata and Malaga defender Ignacio Camacho have been called up for Spain's matches this month against Belarus in a qualifier and against Germany in a friendly.

Diego Costa has been left off the roster to help him recover from his recent injuries.

“I have spoken to our doctors and those of Chelsea and I have decided to leave him out due to the situation with his pubis (pelvis),” Del Bosque told a news conference on Friday.

“He may be able to play (in) Chelsea’s next game against Liverpool (on Saturday) but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have some type of injury problem.”

Del Bosque added: “We have reached a decision with Chelsea’s medical staff that we will take a break due to his groin issues. It has nothing to do with whether he later plays for his club. He always wants to come with us, but we have spoken and this is the best for his health.”
