Diego Hernán Martínez (born 16 November 1978) is an Argentine football manager and former player who played as a midfielder. He is the current manager of Boca Juniors.
A midfielder, Martínez never appeared in any higher than Primera B Nacional, with his only input in the category being three goals in 18 appearances for Gimnasia y Esgrima de Concepción del Uruguay in the 2002–03 season. He also played abroad, spending half a year with Aurora in Guatemala, where he did not appear, and four seasons in Greece with Pierikos and Diagoras.[1]
After retiring Martínez started working as a coach, being initially in charge Boca Juniors' youth categories before taking over his first senior job at Ituzaingó, a club he already represented as a player. After another work at Cañuelas, also a former side, he was in charge of Comunicaciones (for only five matches)[2] and Midland[3] before taking over Estudiantes de Buenos Aires in June 2018.[4]
With Estudiantes, Martínez achieved promotion from Primera B Metropolitana, and also reached the semifinals of the 2018–19 Copa Argentina, being knocked out by River Plate.[5]
On 10 August 2020, Martínez was presented as manager of Primera División side Godoy Cruz.[6] In 2021, he was announced as manager of Tigre.[7]
Sacked by Tigre on 13 June 2023,[8] Martínez took over Huracán on 3 July.[9] He resigned from the latter on 7 December.[10]
On 26 December 2023, Martínez returned to Boca to become their first team manager.[11]
