According to the report from football-espana, before Barcelona’s 1-0 victory over Atletico Madrid in early December, Inigo Martinez was forced to pull out of the starting line-up after picking up an injury in the warm-up. It has kept him out of action ever since, and in the matches since, the Catalans have missed the veteran defender, having conceded 10 goals in just four games.InformationGuideNigeria
The good news for Barcelona is that Martinez is progressing well in his injury recovery. Sport say that he continues to meet the deadlines set for him by the club, and should this continue to be the case, he would return in mid-January.JAMB Result
