Javier Martínez Aguinaga is a 19-year-old midfielder currently plying his trade with La Liga outfit Athletic Bilbao. Born in Pamplona, Spain, Martinez attended the youth academy at Osasuna where he eventually earned 32 starts for the B team, scoring a pair of goals. In 2006, the young Spaniard was bought by Los Leones for €6m and has since become a first-team regular. He has been compared to Patrick Vieira for their similar size and style of play. In 48 matches, he's scored 3 goals.
Here's a video of him scoring a brace against Deportivo. The second one is a nice display of his speed, ball control, and determination:
Here's a compilation of the 'best' goals from La Liga and 2006/07. Martinez is number 9 with a great curling lob from right outside the box. The music is awesome as usual by the way:
