Atletico will continue without J. Martinez

M

adriddo „Atletico“ coach Diego Simeone revealed that his team will continue to be without Jackson Martinez.

The forward got injured on November 12 during the Colombian national team's match against Chile.

The player already missed two previous „Atletico“ matches against „Real Betis“ and „Galatasaray“ clubs, with Fernando Torres taking his place on the field both times. The team management and coach have not revealed how long the player's further treatment will last.
