Chapecoense plane crash

On 28 November 2016, many of his current teammates at Chapecoense were involved in a plane crash, which killed most of the squad (17 died instantly after crash and two more a few hours later in hospital at Medellín). Martuniccio was not on the plane as he had been dropped from the team for the first final game against Atlético Nacional for the 2016 Copa Sudamericana, due to an injury.
Nueva Chicago

Martinuccio made his debut at Club Atlético Nueva Chicago in 2008 and after a remarkable individual performance with his team in the Primera B Metropolitana was transferred to Uruguayan's C.A. Peñarol.
Peñarol
Martinuccio helped Peñarol reach the 2011 Copa Libertadores Finals, in which Peñarol lost to Brazil's Santos. He had thirteen appearances and scored 2 goals in the competition.
Fluminense
After a good display of football in the 2011 Copa Libertadores, Fluminense signed Martinuccio on July 2011.
Villarreal
Martinuccio joined Villarreal in January 2012 in a loan deal. He scored his first goal for Villarreal against Real Zaragoza on March 4.
Cruzeiro
On July 2012, Cruzeiro signed Martinuccio on a one-year loan from Fluminense. He stayed there for another year until mid-2014 and won the 2013 Brazilian Série A and the 2014 Campeonato Mineiro. Although, due to injuries he could never establish himself in the team and returned to Fluminense.
Coritiba
On June 2014 Martinuccio was loaned one more time, on this occasion to another Brazilian club, Coritiba. Once again he struggled with injuries.
Chapecoense
Without playing since November 2014 Chapecoense signed Alejandro on 30 April 2016. Martinuccio failed in medical exams at Ponte Preta before agreeing with Chapecoense. He had a chance to return to football after a series of serious injuries and surgeries on both legs. Because of a new injury, Martinuccio missed the ill-fated team flight which crashed near Medellín, where 71 people died.
