Madrid - Diego Simeone said he was fully responsible for the departure of Jackson Martinez from Atletico Madrid.

"He made an effort to engage and compete. Now we hope he is better in China. "
"When a player does not respond to my method, I am fully in charge."
"He did not have the luck or the chance to give their best here, so obviously I feel responsible."
"It's my failure when Martinez is no longer here. It is part of football, but I would not change my approach. "
