Martins made his mark at Inter Milan in the early 2000s, where, as seen on Transfermarkt, he netted 28 goals and won two Coppa Italia titles for the Italian giants.
After a successful stint in England with Newcastle United, he later moved to Birmingham, where he scored the winning goal against Arsenal to win the League Cup in 2011.

Martins was also part of Nigeria’s bronze-winning team at the 2006 AFCON.
Now living a quieter life off the pitch, Martins’ story remains one of hard work, sacrifice, and global recognition.
Did Martins own a private jet?
Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Martins invests his wealth in luxury items, including real estate, cars and yachts, leading to speculation that the former footballer owns a private jet.
Martins is $25 million rich, even though his sources put his accumulated wealth at $35 million, most of which were estimated from salaries and endorsements.
There was no proof that Obagoal owned a private jet, and possibly flew chartered flights and fans only attributed it to him because of his wealth and flashy lifestyle.
