FC Bayern: Javi Martinez running again

The former Athletic Bilbao star was ruled out for four weeks after an operation to correct a knee problem.

Martinez, who did not travel with the rest of Pep Guardiola's squad for Tuesday's Champions League clash with Juventus in Turin, completed a 20-minute running session with fitness coach Thomas Wilhelmi.

"I am very happy," he told the club's official website. "I feel quite good again. I have no more pain."

It is hoped Martinez will be available for the return leg at the Allianz Arena on March 16.
