Nigeria striker Obafemi Martins is back to full fitness as he was involved in the entire training exercise at Seattle Sounders ground on Tuesday.
Martins has been out of action for several weeks due to a groin injury and his return will be a big boost to coach Sigi Schmid, whose team have suffered a goals’ drought since the former Newcastle United striker was sidelined.
‘Oba’, as he is called in the US, may return for Seattle Sounders on Saturday when they host Vancouver Whitecaps. Coach Schmid was happy to have Martins back.
“Oba is getting better, he is feeling more comfortable, ‘Oba’ is back and the healthier we are, the better for us,” Schmid said.
