Mario Martin - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Purchase option triggered Martin has been permanently signed by Getafe from Real Madrid after the club exercised their purchase option, tying the midfielder to the club until June 2030, the club announced.

Martin has now accumulated 67 Primera Division appearances at just 22 years old and is a regular presence in Spain's U21 national team setup, cementing his status as one of the most promising young midfielders in Spanish football. Getafe expressed their delight at securing his long-term future, with the club backing one of their standout performers of the season to continue his development at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez for the next four years.

Impact Martin picked up his 10th yellow card in La Liga play and will serve a one-match suspension for Sunday's clash against Rayo Vallecano.

Available against Barcelona Martin (hamstring) has been cleared fit and is available for Saturday's clash against Barcelona, according to ARA.

Impact Martin had been withdrawn during Wednesday's visit to Real Sociedad with apparent hamstring discomfort, raising concerns over his availability for the weekend.

Impact Martin is now questionable for the next clash against Barcelona, although it's unclear if he actually sustained a considerable issue.

However, Luis Milla and Mauro Arambarri could cover holding midfield duties if Martin is ruled out due to the injury.

This will likely leave the midfielder out for at least a week or two, with his club yet to confirm the true extent of the injury. He is a starter, so this is a major loss for the club moving forward, potentially forcing Javi Munoz into a starting role until Martin is fit again.

FEBRUARY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Subs off early against Alaves Martin subbed off at the 34th minute of Sunday's game versus Getafe because of a possible ankle injury, AS reported.

The midfielder has been a regular option during the current campaign, making 17 appearances (15 starts) and scoring twice over that span.
