Roger Marti - Starts to train again Marti (ankle) is back in training, manager Mauricio Pellegrino announced Thursday.

Impact Marti is already back in training, which comes as a bit of a surprise after the forward was announced as out for the season following ankle surgery back in December. However, there is still only a slight chance the player will return this season, as with only two months left, the club may choose to preserve him until next season, not forcing him back into a situation where he might aggravate the issue. Either way, he would have to see a return to team training to make that happen, which most likely wouldn't come until the end of April if he does end up making a return to play this campaign.
