Club career

Born in Las Palmas, Canary Islands, Martín joined UD Las Palmas' youth setup in 2005, aged eight.[2] He made his senior debut with the C-team during the 2015–16 season, in the regional leagues.

Martín was definitely promoted to the reserves in Segunda División B ahead of the 2018–19 campaign, but was only sparingly used. On 20 July 2019, he signed a new one-year deal with the club,[3] and became a regular starter for the B's afterwards.

Martín made his first team debut on 17 November 2019, starting in a 1–2 away loss against CD Mirandés in the Segunda División championship.[4] On 31 August 2021, he moved to Segunda División RFEF side Calvo Sotelo Puertollano CF.[5]
