The offensive line needs a plus at Cádiz CF. Neither Álvaro Negredo, nor ‘Choco’ Lozano, much less Álvaro Giménez are contributing the goal quota that Sergio González’s men needand it is in the second row that players such as Álex Fernández, Lucas Pérez or Rubén Sobrino respond. Faced with this situation, the name of Toni Martínez, the Porto forward, is back on the table for the yellow set.
The striker, born 25 years ago in Murcia, He has a long career despite his age. After going through the youth academy of Valencia or West Ham, Toni landed in Spain to play for teams like Valladolid, Rayo Majadahonda or CD Lugo before trying his luck in the Portuguese league.
It was at this stage in Pucela that he met the current coach of Cádiz CF, Sergio González. He played eleven games and scored one goal, and was part of the side that surprisingly achieved promotion to the First Division. The goal scored by the attacker was in fact against Cadiz, who managed to equalize Servando’s mediation clash in the 93rd minute.
After not having achieved continuity and regularity in the national territory, Toni Martínez changed the country, but he didn’t leave the Iberian Peninsula behind. He headed to Portugal, where he enjoyed a spectacular run at the Famalicao, scoring 14 goals in 38 games. This earned him Porto, led by Sérgio Conceiçao, to notice his qualities and hired his services.

Scorer of seven goals in all competitions last year, he currently seems to be increasing his production in a side for which he is not a regular. In 23 games this season, the Murcia striker has scored five goals. Because of this, the player would be looking for a place to count on more regularly and Cadiz, where he would meet Sergio González again, could be a good destination.
He is a highly regarded footballer by the yellow entity and has already been associated with the Cadiz team in previous markets. The Portuguese club doesn’t make it easy for him to leave, so a loan deal would be a winning formula for all parties. However, it seems like an operation that won’t unblock easily, but Cadiz’s interest exists and they also like the player’s footballing qualities.
