Jose Martinez is a lethal weapon for Jim Curtin
Douglas DeFelice-USA TODAY Sports Jose Martinez was initially referred to as a project by Sporting Director Ernst Tanner when he was signed in the offseason, but after six matches for the Philadelphia Union the more appropriate word for the 26-year-old Venezuelan is weapon.
Though he’s been shown yellow cards in four of his six matches for the Union and sat out a one-game suspension after the MLS Disciplinary Committee weighed in on a challenge that earned him a yellow against Inter Miami, he’s also helped cement the midfield for head coach Jim Curtin.
