Enrique Martín Monreal Lizarraga (born 9 March 1956), known as Martín, is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a forward, and the current coach of CA Osasuna.

His professional career was intimately connected with Osasuna, as both a player and manager.

Playing career

Born in Pamplona, Navarre, Martín played his entire career with local CA Osasuna, making his professional debuts in the 1979–80 season whilst the club was in Segunda División and helping it return to La Liga after a 17-year absence.[1][2] He previously represented CD Tudelano and UE Lleida, both on loan.[3]

Subsequently, until his retirement in 1988 at the age of 32, he always competed in the top flight, his first game in the competition taking place on 7 September 1980 in a 1–0 home win against UD Las Palmas.[4] His best outputs occurred in that and the 1982–83 campaigns, when he netted seven times from 34 appearances.[5]

In May 1982, Osasuna rejected an offer of 80 million pesetas from Real Madrid.[6] Martín appeared in three games with his only team in the 1985–86 UEFA Cup, scoring in a 2–0 home triumph over Rangers in the first round (2–1 on aggregate);[7] he gained two caps for Spain, his debut coming on 27 October 1982 in a 1–0 win over Iceland for the UEFA Euro 1984 qualifiers (six minutes played in Málaga).[8]

Managerial career

From 1990 to 1999 Martín worked with Osasuna, being in charge of the youth sides, the reserves and the main squad. In 1993–94, he was one of two coaches as the latter suffered top level relegation after ranking in last position.

After leaving the Rojillos, Martín coached in the second tier with CD Leganés (two spells),[9][10] Burgos CF,[11] Terrassa FC,[12] Xerez CD[13] and CD Numancia.[14] He led the second club to the 16th position out of 22 teams in the 2001–02 season, but saw it suffer administrative relegation.[15]

On 5 May 2015, after another two stints with Osasuna B (two full seasons, three games in 2011–12),[16][17][18] Martín returned to the first team, seriously threatened with relegation in the second division.[19]
