The 23-year-old, who was born in Punta del Este, started out at Primera División club Nacional in his home country, making 34 appearances and scoring once, before moving to Brazilian Serie A side Red Bull Bragantino in 2021.

He featured 13 times, then heading to FC Midtjylland in August 2022, on loan initially, making his move permanent in November and signing a contract until 2027.

Martinez made 25 appearances last term, but according to Sport Witness, is now interesting Hatters boss Rob Edwards following Town’s promotion to the Premier League.
