The Seattle Sounders number nine has undergone an MRI scan and the result show that he will spend three - six weeks on the treatment table.
“It doesn’t require surgery. So that’s a positive situation. But we’ve got to see how many weeks he will be out of action).”coach Sigi Schmid told the media after training on Thursday.
“So the window is similar. Between three and six weeks, we’d expect.”
If we take a positive approach and use three weeks as the base, Obafemi Martins will be unavailable for selection for games against SJ Earthquakes, Philadelphia Union , Portland Timbers and DC United in the MLS.
The 30 - year - old former Nigeria international has scored 8 goals in all competitions this term.
