Emiliano Martínez

Emiliano Martínez — not to be confused with the Argentine goalkeeper — is a Uruguayan midfielder who developed at Nacional before moving to Europe via RB Bragantino and FC Midtjylland in Denmark. His time in the Danish Superliga gave him consistent first-team football and helped him develop into a more complete player before Palmeiras signed him in 2025. He is a creative, technically gifted midfielder who operates in the interior channels. For Uruguay, he is a squad option rather than a guaranteed starter, competing for minutes behind a very strong midfield group, but his Palmeiras move suggests growing ambition.
