Trouble: Obafemi Martins, is no longer in the good books of his team
NIGERIAN striker, Obafemi Martins, is no longer in the good books of his team mates at Spanish La Liga side, Levante, following the player’s intention to move to Major League Soccer (MLS) outfit, Seattle Sounders.
The Nigerian expressed his interest on a local radio programme Cadena Ser Valencia earlier in the week but club captain, Juanfran, says Martins chose the wrong forum and has provoked a dressing-room discontent.
‘’We have been talking to him to be clear and we will not talk about it anymore. The captains have met and told him that he made a mistake,” the 36-year-old revealed.
“Here in Spain we treat these issues in a certain way and maybe he comes from somewhere where it is handled differently.
