What happened: The fee is reported in the region of $8.5 million, a Danish league record. Martinez joins after 96 appearances for LAFC.
Why it matters: The move removes a young attacker from LAFC as the club sits in the Western Conference's top four. LAFC had 11 regular-season matches remaining in its 2026 campaign.
By the numbers: Martinez has six goals in 18 MLS appearances this season.
What to watch: LAFC's remaining regular-season matches will show how its attack adjusts without Martinez.
