TRANSFER TRACKER STATUS: Transfer
LAFC have transferred forward David Martínez to Danish Superliga side FC Midtjylland, the club announced Tuesday.
The 20-year-old Venezuelan international departs for reportedly around an $8.5 million fee.
Martínez, who occupied a U22 Initiative roster spot, joined LAFC from Venezuelan side Monagas SC ahead of the 2024 MLS season.
The attacker tallied 21 goals and 10 assists in 96 matches for LAFC and placed fifth on MLS's annual 22 Under 22 Rankings in 2025.
Internationally, Martínez has played seven times for Venezuela's senior team since debuting in 2023.
"It has been a pleasure to play a part in David's development and see him grow both as a player and as a person during his time at LAFC," said president of soccer operations John Thorrington. "David has always dreamed of playing in Europe, and he has earned this opportunity he truly wants to pursue.
"This transfer provides meaningful resources for us to continue reinvesting to strengthen our team, while demonstrating that LAFC can identify and develop talented young players and help prepare them for the next step in their careers.
"We are grateful to FC Midtjylland and David’s representatives for the collaborative and professional way they approached this process, and we wish David every success in this next chapter."
