Former Nigeria international Obafemi Martins will sit out Seattle Sounders&rsquo; clash in the MLS against Sporting Kansas City on Saturday on account of injury. <br /><br />The former Newcastle United and Inter Milan star had surgery to repair a broken nose earlier in the week and has not taken part in full training for the past two days.<br /><br />&ldquo;Martins had surgery and he was unable to train after the surgery because when you have surgery like that there&rsquo;s a chance at nosebleeds, so you can&rsquo;t really train,&rdquo;&nbsp; coach Sigi Schmid told reporters.<br /><br />In recent weeks, Martins has struggled with injuries, and missed two games in May against Vancouver Whitecaps and Sporting KC.<br /><br />In ten outings this season, the experienced striker has found the back of the net on six occasions.<br /><br />Photo Credit : mlssoccer.com<br />
