Spain assistant manager Toni Grande has admitted that he cannot wait to see Atletico Madrid forward Diego Costa in action.
The 25-year-old was handed his first La Roja call-up on Friday for next week's friendly against Italy, with Grande revealing his excitement at having the Brazilian-born striker on board.
"He has burst onto the scene with enormous power and energy, as well as a keen eye for goal," he told Sefutbol.com.
"His movement on the pitch gives a team the space in needs to open up the opposition. We had very few doubts about him."
Grande has also recently revealed that Real Madrid's Iker Casillas will be the first-choice goalkeeper for the World Cup this summer.
