Jackson Martinez decided to retire from professional soccer for one particular reason and surprised his fans

Jackson Martinez knew how to be one of the most important footballers in Europe. When he played for Atletico de Madrid, he was one of the club's most important transfers. After several years where he suffered a couple of injuries and could not show his level again, he decided to stop playing professional football to dedicate himself to another of his passions.

Currently, Jackson Martinez was without a team. After his failed stint for a team in the second division of Portugal, no team wanted to contact him and so he was out of work. While that could be one of the reasons for not playing professionally any more, it is not the main reason for him to make that decision.

Jackson Martinez decided to trade professional soccer for his singing career. Since the Colombian striker began to suffer injuries and to move away from the level he wanted, he became closer to religion and found a new passion in music. The videos of his songs and what he does are being all the rage on YouTube and that is why I would like to focus 100% on that.

Liga MX witnessed the great quality that Jackson Martinez had. All the players who were with Jackson Martinez say that in addition to being a great soccer player, he is a great person. Jackson Martinez gave us great goals and scored 192 goals throughout his career. Soccer will miss Jackson Martinez.
