Playing career

Martínez started his career with local club Sarmiento, appearing three times as the club were relegated from the 2004–05 Primera B Nacional; he remained for three further years in Primera B Metropolitana.[2] Argentine Primera División side Arsenal de Sarandí completed the signing of Martínez in 2008, though the defender departed a year later without featuring for their senior team.[2][3] In 2009, Martínez joined Primera B Nacional's Sportivo Italiano.[1] Four fixtures arrived, including his debut on 29 November against Unión Santa Fe.[1] He had a stint back with Sarmiento in 2011, which took his overall tally there to forty-six matches and four goals.[2]

2012 saw Temperley of Primera B Metropolitana sign Martínez.[1] He scored goals versus Villa San Carlos and Brown in 2011–12 as they finished fifteenth.[1] At the conclusion of that campaign, Martínez agreed to play for Brown in tier three.[1] He was selected five times by manager Pablo Vicó, before leaving midway through 2012–13 to join Racing de Trelew in Torneo Argentino B.[1] In June 2013, Martínez signed with Primera C Metropolitana side Defensores Unidos.[1][4] Nine appearances followed.[2] He was released in December 2013.[5][6]
