Club career

[edit]

Born in Meknes, Morocco, Martini moved to England at the age of three.[3] He started his career with the Tottenham Hotspur academy, before spending two years with Wimbledon.[4][5] He also played for Leicester City at first team level 4 appearances.[6] In 1990, he signed for Wycombe Wanderers, but would only go on to make thirty two appearances in all competitions for the Chairboys.[1][7] While at Wycombe Wanderers, he also represented them in five-a-side football where he won best player titles in both consecutive years 1994 and 1995[8] He had two short spells with Slough Town in 1992 and 1996, before leaving permanently for Barnet in 1996.[9]

After a few months at Barnet, and failing to make an appearance, he moved to the United States, where he played for the Dallas Sidekicks, Indiana Twisters, Columbus Invaders and Connecticut Wolves.[10][11][12]

On his return to England, Martini signed for King's Lynn Town in late 1998.[13] In his two years with the club, he set a new clean sheet record.[4] He also spent time with Farnborough in 2001,[14] as well as playing for Sutton United, Folkestone Invicta and Dartford.[4] He joined Maidstone United in March 2002, signing a three-match deal with the Stones.[15] Later in the same year, he moved to Bromley, before his release in July 2003.[4][16]

He had a short stint with Kingstonian in 2005, spent time with Worthing and Dulwich Hamlet, and then was at Molesey in 2007, following the departure of Steve Beeks.[4][17][18]

International career

[edit]

There are numerous mentions of Martini as a "Moroccan international", with Martini himself saying he felt "blessed" to represent Morocco at international level on four occasions.[3] According to one source, he played 17 games for the Morocco under-21 team and four times for the full national team.

Managerial career

[edit]

Martini served as manager of Godalming Town between 2007 and 2010, in his first season in charge saving Godalming Town from relegation and steering them to their highest step 4 league position. 2010 was arguably Godalming Town best ever season in their entire history finishing in the Ryman League 1 play off final and reaching FA Troaphy 4th round along with FA Cup 3rd round Qualifier he then switched to Walton & Hersham, spending three years with the Swans.[5][19]
