Oladipupo Olarotini Martins

Oladipupo Olarotimi Martins is the older brother of Newcastle United striker Obafemi Martins. Like his brother, Oladipupo started his European career with Italian side A.C. Reggiana before quickly attracting the attention of Inter Milan who he signed for in 2001. Unlike his brother Oladipupo didn't strive at Inter and was released at the end of the 2001/2002 season. He returned back to Nigeria but soon found himself heading back to Europe, this time for a trial with Serbian side FK Partizan Beograd. His work was rewarded and in 2002 he signed a professional contract. His opportunities at Partizan were limited and most of his opportunities to play ended up being for the B-Team Teleoptik. In 2004 he was released from his contract and returned back to Nigeria once again, this time for an extended period before he finally signing for Austrian side Innsbrucker AC in time for the 2007/08 season after a trial period. Oladipupo also has a younger brother, John Ronan Martins who is an up and coming starlet in the Nigerian league.
