Antonio Martínez López (born 30 June 1997), commonly referred to as Toni Martínez, is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a forward for Real Valladolid, on loan from Premier League club West Ham United. He has represented Spain at under-17 and under-19 level.
Prior to joining West Ham, Martínez played for Real Murcia and Valencia CF at youth level, and the latter's B-team at semi-professional level.
Born in Barrio del Progreso, Murcia, Martínez began his footballing career with local side C.F.S. El Progreso and later joined Real Murcia. In 2013, he signed for Valencia. Initially a member of the club's academy Cadete A team (for players aged 14–15 years), Martínez was soon admitted to their reserve side, Valencia Mestalla (Valencia B). He made his senior debut in the Segunda División B (third tier) at the age of 16, coming on as a substitute and scoring in a match against AE Prat on 8 December 2013.
In three seasons at Valencia Mestalla he played 16 games and scored two goals, and made a further eight appearances, a goal and three assists for the club's under-19 squad in the UEFA Youth League.
In April 2016, Martínez agreed a three-year deal to join English club West Ham United on 1 July 2016 for a fee of around £2.4 million. He was given permission to train with his new teammates by Valencia to help him settle in England and would initially link up with West Ham United's development squad. Martínez was given the number 29 shirt for the 2016–17 season.
