Career

Born in Blanes, Girona, Catalonia, Martínez began his career with CF Tordera, and played for CF Damm before joining FC Barcelona's La Masia in 2011, aged ten.[1] He left the club in 2018, and subsequently moved to RCD Espanyol.

Martínez made his senior debut with Espanyol's reserves on 24 February 2019, coming on as a late substitute for goalscorer Álex Bermejo in a 3–0 Segunda División B home win over CE Sabadell FC,[2] and scored his first goal with the side on 28 April, netting the third in a home success over CD Teruel for the same scoreline. On 4 August 2020, however, he left the Pericos after failing to establish himself as a regular starter for the B's,[3] and signed for fellow third division side FC Andorra the following day.[4]

On 8 July 2021, Martínez moved to another reserve team, CA Osasuna B of the Segunda División RFEF.[5] He helped the side to achieve promotion to Primera Federación in his first season by scoring nine goals,[6] and added a further five in his second.

On 5 August 2023, Martínez was announced at third division side San Fernando CD.[7] The following 17 June, after suffering relegation, he moved to fellow league team Unionistas de Salamanca CF.[8]

On 4 July 2025, Martínez agreed to a two-year contract with Gimnàstic de Tarragona, still in division three.[9] On 18 August of the following year, he terminated his link with the club.[10]
