Well, it depends. Sometimes splinters can get infected and mess up your foot. But usually nothing happens. You can get a splinter that's under your skin out by soaking it with warm/hot water. If the area where the splinter was is red, tender, and/or hurts really badly, it is probably infected and you should call a doctor to get it out.

Can you leave a deep splinter in your foot?

You could leave a deep splinter in your foot but it is not recommended. Any foreign body in the human body can cause infection. That infection can spread to the bones and muscles of the feet and on up into the leg and eventually abdominal cavity. I'd recommend you get it out.
