Corentin da Silva Martins (born 11 July 1969) is a French former professional footballer who played as an attacking midfielder, currently a manager.

[2] He started his professional career with hometown club Stade Brestois 29, moving to AJ Auxerre in 1991 and being part of the emergent side led by legendary Guy Roux that in 1992–93 reached the UEFA Cup semi-finals[3] and, four years later, achieved an historic double.

[8][9] After a loan spell at FC Girondins de Bordeaux, Martins returned to Strasbourg and remained there until 2004, finishing his career the same year after a few months with Clermont Foot.

He represented the nation at UEFA Euro 1996 and made a total of 14 appearances, but his international career was eclipsed by the emergence of Zinedine Zidane.

[13] Martins returned twice more as caretaker manager for Brest: during 2011–12, after Alex Dupont was dismissed,[14] and again the following top-flight season when Landry Chauvin was shown the door.
