Club career

Born in Las Palmas, Canary Islands, Martín finished his graduation with UD Las Palmas, and made his senior debuts with the reserves in the 2008–09 season, in Segunda División B. In August 2010 he was loaned to neighbouring UD Lanzarote, in Tercera División.[1] A season later Martín returned to the B-team, now in the fourth level.

On 15 October 2012, due to Mariano Barbosa's suspension and Raúl Lizoain's injury, Martín made his professional debut, starting in a 2–3 away loss against Real Madrid Castilla, for the Segunda División championship;[2] it was his maiden first team appearance, however. Released in 2015, he moved to fellow Tercera División side CD Unión Sur Yaiza on 25 September.[3]
