Scouting Series (EP 3): RBs with Youthful Potential - Arnau Martínez -Girona

The third instalment of our Scouting Series 2023 on types of Right Backs that Unai Emery might be interested in. NOTE: There is no link to Martínez nor are we saying this play specifically is a player to sign. We are scouting for traits and types of players. Lets take a look at Arnau Martínez Born in Premià de Dalt, Barcelona, Catalonia, Martínez joined FC Barcelona's La Masia in 2010, after playing for CE Premià de Dalt. He left the club in 2016, and represented CE L'Hospitalet before moving to Girona FC in September 2018. On 29 November 2020, after renewing his contract until 2023, Martínez made his senior debut with the reserves, starting in a 2–2 Tercera División away draw against UE Sant Andreu. He made his first team debut on 17 December, coming on as a second-half substitute for Enric Franquesa in a 2–0 away win against Gimnástica Segoviana CF, for the season's Copa del Rey. Martínez made his professional debut on 7 January 2021, again replacing Franquesa in a 2–1 home win against CD Lugo, also for the national cup. His Segunda División debut occurred on 28 March, as he started in a 2–1 home success over Albacete Balompié. Martínez subsequently established himself as a starter, and scored his first professional goal on 9 May 2021 by netting the opener in a 4–1 away routing of UD Logroñés; aged 18 years and 14 days, he became the youngest goalscorer of the club's history.
