INDIANAPOLIS – Indy Eleven forward Douglas Martinez has been called up to the Honduras National Football Team’s roster for the CONCACAF Nations League Quarterfinal matches. Martinez will be available for selection for their two-leg contest against Mexico on November 17 and 21.

Martinez finished the 2023 USL Championship season with four goals and three assists on 31 appearances for Indy Eleven in his first season with the club.

Honduras previously advanced through the group stage of the Nations League competition finishing second in League A, Group B just behind Jamaica. They are currently 2-1-1 in the competition.

Martinez was first called up by the Honduran U-20 squad for the 2017 CONCACAF U-20 Championship in which they finished second. He also helped the side qualify for the 2017 FIFA U-20 World Cup in South Korea, scoring one goal in six appearances. During the 2019 season, Martinez scored two goals to help Honduras win silver at the Pan American Games. He followed the performance up with a National Team selection that included three appearances in the CONCACAF Nations League. His first senior-level goal came in his debut, a 2-0 victory over Trinidad and Tobago in 2019. He also represented Honduras at the 2020 Olympic Games.
