Nahuel Darío Martínez (born 10 February 1976) is an Argentine football coach and former player who played as a centre-back.
Born in Rosario, Martínez finished his formation with River Plate, but never managed to make a first team appearance for the club.[1][2] At the age of 21, he moved to Mexico and joined Real San Luis, and subsequently played for Gallos de Aguascalientes, Atlético Mexiquense and Tigrillos Coapa in the country.[1]
In 2004, Martínez returned to his home country and joined Sportivo Belgrano. He subsequently played for Argentino de Rosario,[2] and moved to Ecuador in January 2006 with LDU Portoviejo,[3] but a serious knee injury forced him into retirement.[1]
Managerial career
After retiring, Martínez started working at Mitre de Pérez's youth sides, and eventually became the first team manager of the side.[1] He later worked as an assistant manager at Argentino de Rosario and Sportivo Belgrano before becoming the manager of Sarmiento de Leones on 19 October 2012.[4]
On 29 October 2014, Martínez agreed to return to Sportivo Belgrano, now as manager.[5] He resigned the following 26 March,[6] and later joined Belgrano as a manager of the youth sides.
On 8 December 2016, Martínez agreed to become the manager of Peruvian Primera División side Alianza Atlético for the upcoming season.[7] On 24 February 2017, however, he was sacked after just four matches.[8]
On 19 June 2017, Martínez was appointed at the helm of Sportivo Las Parejas.[9] He resigned in November of the following year,[10] and subsequently joined Juan Pablo Vojvoda's staff at Talleres, as his assistant.
Martínez followed Vojvoda to Huracán,[11] Unión La Calera, Fortaleza[12] and Santos,[13] always under the same role.
