career
Martino already played in his youth with the Newell's Old Boys from his hometown Rosario. The defensive midfielder has played for Newell's more than 500 times and has won three Argentine championships with them. During his playing days Martino played alongside Newell's Old Boys for the Argentine club CA Lanús and CD Tenerife from Spain, before ending his career with O'Higgins in Rancagua, Chile.
He had worked as a coach for various second division clubs in Argentina before winning a total of four championships in Paraguay with Club Cerro Porteño in 2004 and with Libertad in 2002, 2003 and 2006. In 2007 Martino was named Paraguay's national coach and South America's coach of the year in the same year.
When he and his team reached the final of the Copa America in 2011 , which were lost 3-0 to Uruguay , he subsequently resigned. As the reason for this surprising departure, he stated that his mission in Paraguay ended with this final . Since the coach of the Colombian national team resigned at the same time, he was offered this post, but he declined and returned to his team Newell's Old Boys, which was in a difficult situation at the time. He led the team to win the second half of the Argentine league 2012/13 , but in the final of the Argentine championship, the Old Boys were defeated by first-round winner CA Vélez Sársfield .
In July 2013 Martino was the successor of Tito Vilanova, who retired due to illness, as coach of FC Barcelona . After he could not win the decisive game for the Spanish championship on the last day of the 2013/14 season against the new champions Atlético Madrid (1-1), he resigned from his post.
In August 2014 he succeeded Alejandro Sabella as coach of the Argentina national football team . Martino led the Albiceleste to the final of the Copa America twice (2015 and 2016), but the Argentinians lost on penalties to Chile . He also led the team to first place in the FIFA world rankings . He resigned on July 5, 2016.
From September 2016 to 2018 Martino coached the new Atlanta United team in Major League Soccer . In 2019 he became the coach of the Mexican national soccer team and won the CONCACAF Gold Cup 2019 with it .
