Martín Andrés Mundaca Barraza (born 8 January 2007) is a Chilean professional footballer who plays as a left winger for Chilean Primera División side Coquimbo Unido.
Born in Ovalle, Chile, Mundaca was with the football academy of his hometown, Academia Municipal de Fútbol Ovalle, and the Universidad de Chile under-13 team before joining the Coquimbo Unido youth ranks in 2022.[2][3]
Mundaca made his professional debut in the Chilean Primera División match against Audax Italiano on 28 March 2024. As an anecdote, he joined the first team after the manager Fernando Díaz needed one player to finish a training session.[4] He stood out in his second official match against Cobreloa on 7 April of the same year by scoring twice, surpassing records of players such as Alexis Sánchez and Jeisson Vargas.[2][5][6] Two weeks later, he scored again in the 2–0 win against O'Higgins.[7]
With Coquimbo Unido, Mundaca also competed at the 2024 Copa Sudamericana, with appearances against Sportivo Luqueño and Racing Club,[8][9] and won the 2025 Chilean Primera División, the first one for the club.[10]
International career
In his youth, Mundaca was called up to the Chile under-16 team.[11]
During 2024, Mundaca was frequently called up to friendly tournaments and training microcycles of the Chile under-20 national team with views to the 2025 FIFA U20 World Cup.[12][13][14] As a member of the Chile under-18 team, he took part in the Leonel Sánchez Tournament in October 2024.[15]
