Club career

Martínez was spotted by Norwegian scouts during the tournament against Trinidad and Tobago[citation needed] and shortly after went on loan to Norwegian side, Vålerenga. He also travelled to Norway alongside U-20 teammate, Reinieri Mayorquín who went on loan to Aalesund.[2] Martínez made his debut in Tippeligaen when Vålerenga lost 3–4 against Start on 3 May 2009, but were mostly playing for Vålerenga's reserve team in the Second Division.[3] Martínez only got two appearances for Vålerenga, both coming on as a substitute.[4] The same year, Martínez played for Honduras U-20 in the 2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Egypt, and was the team's best player in the 3–0 victory against Hungary U-20, where he scored two goals.[3]

In January 2010, he joined the Belgian team RSC Anderlecht on a six-month loan-deal.[5]

On 1 August 2012, Martínez joined MLS club Seattle Sounders FC on loan from Real España.[6] His first training session in Seattle was 17 August 2012. He participated in a reserve league match with the Sounders on 19 August 2012 in a 3–2 win over the Los Angeles Galaxy reserves. His first goal for the Sounders won the Western Conference semi-final match against Real Salt Lake on 8 November 2012.[7]

On 2014, Martinez was signed by Barcelona Sporting Club, the biggest club in Ecuador.

International career

Martínez was a part of the Honduras U-23 team that competed in the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. He was the youngest player in the squad, being only 19 years old.[citation needed] On 4 September 2010, Martínez made his debut for the Honduras National Team in a match against El Salvador, where Honduras won 4–3 via penalty shootout due to a 2–2 tie in regular time. He assisted the first goal for Honduras, thus helping his team to the Copa Independencia.[citation needed]
