Born in Póvoa de Varzim, Martins family emigrated to France when he was very young, and he first played professionally with AS Nancy Lorraine, spending three seasons at the club. In 1995–96 he returned to Portugal, signing for Sporting CP.[1]

Martins' tenure at the Primeira Liga side was an inconsistent one: he was a starter initially but, towards the end, was often demoted to the reserves and participated very little in the 2000 and 2002 championship conquests (no games whatsoever in the latter, as he was left without a place in the squad and only trained separately).[2][3][1]

Martins finished his career in June 2007 at the age of 34, after spells with Moreirense FC,[3] Vitória S.C. and lowly F.C. Lixa. He did not have a club in the 2005–06 campaign.
