Martinelli made history at Fluminense by reaching 300 matches for the club, becoming the first athlete born in the 21st century to achieve this feat wearing the tricolor jersey. The milestone was reached precisely in the match that confirmed the conquest of the Taça Guanabara, adding even more symbolism to the night.

Trained in Xerém, the midfielder represents a new generation of the club and breaks a historical barrier by becoming the first player of the 21st century to reach this number of games. The achievement gains even more relevance as it comes during a period marked by greater team rotation and early transfers to European football.
