Laurent Koscielny injury fears eased

Laurent Koscielny's knee injury is not as bad as first feared, according to reports.

The Arsenal defender was understood to have been stretchered off during a training session with the French national team on Wednesday ahead of their World Cup qualifier against Spain.

However, reports now claim that he will be fit to feature in the match at the Vicente Calderon on Tuesday.

Koscielny has been capped four times by France after making his debut last year.
