Iñigo Martínez Berridi (Basque: [iɲiɣo maɾtines̻ beriði]; Spanish: [ˈiɲiɣo maɾˈtineθ βeˈriði]; born 17 May 1991) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for La Liga club Barcelona and the Spain national team.
He spent most of his professional career with Real Sociedad, playing 238 matches (17 goals scored) in all competitions after making his debut at the age of 20. In January 2018, he signed with Athletic Bilbao, with whom he won the 2020–21 Supercopa de España as well as reaching two Copa del Rey finals.
Martínez won his first cap for Spain in 2013.
Club career
[edit]Real Sociedad
[edit]Born in Ondarroa, Biscay, Martínez joined Real Sociedad's youth ranks from local Aurrerá Ondarroa.[2][3] He made his senior debut in the 2009–10 season, helping the reserves to promote from Tercera División after one year out by contributing 23 games and one goal;[4] he started out as a left-back.[5]
On 27 August 2011, Martínez made his first-team – and La Liga – debut with the Basques, playing the full 90 minutes in a 2–1 away win against Sporting de Gijón.[6] On 2 October he scored his first league goal, from inside his own half in an eventual 2–1 home loss to Athletic Bilbao in a derby.[7]
Martínez scored his third league goal in the same fashion, in a 3–2 away victory over Real Betis on 27 November 2011 (in the 90th minute).[8] He continued to be first choice in the following top-flight campaigns, notably helping the club to return to the UEFA Champions League after ten years in 2012–13 by netting four times[9][10][11][12] in 34 matches.
On 26 April 2016, Martínez signed a new five-year deal.[13]
Athletic Bilbao
[edit]On 30 January 2018, Martínez signed with Athletic Bilbao for €32 million (his contractual buyout clause amount and a record outlay for the buying club) on a deal until 2023;[14][15] the fee was around half of the figure received the same day for the player he replaced in the Athletic squad, Aymeric Laporte, who had moved to Manchester City.[16] He made his debut on 4 February, playing the entirety of a 2–0 domestic league defeat away to Girona.[17]
During October 2018, Martínez conceded two penalties for foul challenges in two local derby matches in the domestic league, both of which led to the opening goal and were awarded after Video Assistant Referee reviews – the first in a 3–1 home defeat to his old club Real Sociedad[18] and the second in a 1–1 away draw against Eibar.[19]
Martínez scored his first goal for Athletic (in his 85th competitive appearance) with a backheel flick in a home league fixture against Betis on 20 June 2020. He later also gave away a penalty, but the kick was missed and his proved to be the only goal of the match.[20]
Under the spotlight playing against his former club Real Sociedad in the delayed 2020 Copa del Rey final, Martínez had a major role in proceedings:[21] he came close to scoring with a long-range shot in the first half, appeared to have conceded a penalty for handball on the edge of the penalty area at the start of the second half – a VAR review ruled this to have been outside the box – then did concede a penalty for a foul on Portu ten minutes later. He was sent off by the referee, but another VAR check decided that he had not denied a goalscoring opportunity deliberately and the red card was downgraded to yellow. The penalty was scored, and Real took the trophy with a 1–0 scoreline.[21] In the aftermath, he was seen taking time to offer congratulations to his many old teammates and was praised in the media for his sportsmanship.[21]
Martínez announced his departure from the San Mamés Stadium at the end of the 2022–23 season.[22] During his spell, he totalled 177 games and eight goals;[23] in his last year, he dealt with several injury problems.[24][25]
Barcelona
[edit]On 5 July 2023, Barcelona announced the signing of Martínez on a free transfer with a two-year contract, which included a €400 million release clause.[26] His early tenure was hindered by a foot injury that required surgery shortly after his arrival, delaying his registration and relegating him to fifth-choice behind Ronald Araújo, Andreas Christensen, Eric García and Jules Koundé.[27] He made his competitive debut on 3 September, coming on for Christensen in the 91st minute of a 2–1 away win over Osasuna.[28] His first start occurred 23 days later in the 2–2 away draw against Mallorca,[29] and he finished his debut campaign with 25 appearances in all competitions.[30]
Martínez became a regular starter at the beginning of 2024–25 under new head coach Hansi Flick, following injuries to Araújo and Christensen.[31][32] He scored his first goal for both the club and in European competitions on 1 October 2024, in a 5–0 victory against Young Boys in the Champions League league phase.[33]
International career
[edit]Martínez made his debut for the Spain under-21 team in 2011. In the following year, he was picked by manager Luis Milla for his squad that appeared in the 2012 Summer Olympics in London.[34] In the first game against Japan he was sent off late into the first half for bringing down Kensuke Nagai, thus denying a clear goalscoring opportunity, in an eventual 1–0 loss.[35]
Martínez made his first appearance with the full side on 14 August 2013, coming on as a second-half substitute for Sergio Ramos in a 2–0 friendly win over Ecuador.[36] Between September 2018 and March 2021 he received eleven caps, including seven starting appearances;[37][38] however, he was not included in Luis Enrique's 24-man squad for the UEFA Euro 2020 tournament (delayed for a year by the COVID-19 pandemic in Europe) when it was announced on 24 May,[39] with the player stating that he was not totally happy with his physical situation having missed a number of club matches during the season and an agreement had been made between him, the national body and Athletic that he would not take part.[40]
On 5 June 2022, Martínez scored his first goal, a last-minute header in the 2–2 away draw with the Czech Republic in the UEFA Nations League.[41]
Style of play
[edit]Martínez has been likened to compatriot Carles Puyol and is known for his heading ability which makes him an aerial threat on set pieces, despite his modest stature of 1.82 m (5 ft 11+1⁄2 in). He is also known for his tackling, leadership qualities and ability to read the game, as well as competence with the ball at his feet.[42]
