Jackson Martínez loses sportily when changing Atletico Madrid by China

The news Panic Brazilian clubs early this year now also bring discomfort to the big Europe: the economic strength of the Chinese team took another important player scene. Now the choice is Jackson Martinez, who by EUR 42 million signed with Guangzhou Evergrande and left Atletico Madrid. But what you have to gain from it?

Financially, too. Sportily, nothing. Nobody goes to the Chinese football for recognition or new challenges. The reason for changing any center that is by China is a decision based entirely on money. What in fact, it is not being questioned here. Every one knows where squeezes himself callus and how is life after football. This is not the issue addressed here.

Jackson did not hold at Atletico Madrid and made only eight appearances for the Spanish League. He also served in the Champions League and the King's Cup, but did not impress. Early in the season, Atletico disbursed EUR 35 million to pay its fine along the harbor, but the truth is that since the Colombian failed to convince that it was a good bet.

For Atletico, the sale was celebrated under 10 million profit on the transaction. Of course, by having the chance to buy another player of respect for the money. Jackson will certainly celebrate your financial freedom for life, as it will receive 12 million euros a year, becoming the fifth highest paid athlete in the world in football.

In this context, the attacker must lose ground in the Colombian national team. It may even only be called in the future, but certainly will not be remembered in the first team of Jose Pekerman in the coming months. The trend is that the situation extends until he returns to Europe, that is, to return one day.

In international friendlies played by Colombia, Teo Gutierrez and Carlos Bacca were chosen by Pekerman to start the match. Since qualifying for the World Cup began in October 2015, Jackson has stayed out of the lists.

The 29-year-old Martinez lived his great stage through the port and everything indicates that it should not get another chance like to be starring in a big club. The move by Atletico did not leave a good impression, scoring just three goals.

In the end, losing a goalscorer as Jackson is a fact to be regretted in European football. And in the middle of the year Atletico must repair the low cast with a purchase also impressive. Someone who comes to the goals that the Colombian did not, with the money that colchoneros ended up having back on its transfer to Evergrande. Follow the game.
