Seattle Sounders Star Obafemi Martins Ruled Out Of Sporting KC Clash After Nose Surgery
Published: June 06, 2015
Former Nigeria international Obafemi Martins will sit out Seattle Sounders’ clash in the MLS against Sporting Kansas City on Saturday on account of injury.
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.
“Martins had surgery and he was unable to train after the surgery because when you have surgery like that there’s a chance at nosebleeds, so you can’t really train,” coach Sigi Schmid told reporters.
In recent weeks, Martins has struggled with injuries, and missed two games in May against Vancouver Whitecaps and Sporting KC.
In ten outings this season, the experienced striker has found the back of the net on six occasions.
