Build the statue. Josef Martinez will go down as one, if not the most influential player in Atlanta United’s history. 103 MLS goals scored for The Five Stripes since 2017. A player who has become the face of a generation’s fandom in Georgia’s capital, a symbol of soccer in a city that prides itself in its rich sporting history. No matter what happens this offseason, the legacy has been made. The next chapter may still be awaiting a location, but as long as the writer remains the same, we’re sure it’ll get the ending it deserves.
