Edder Nelson Martin (born 26 June 1986 in Limón[1]) is a Costa Rican football player who currently plays for C.F. Universidad de Costa Rica.

Club career

He played the 2009 second division final for Municipal Grecia[2] and later played for Puntarenas. In January 2012, Nelson signed a 6-month contract with Slovakian side Senica but he did not pass a medical.[3]

Cartaginés

On May 29, 2012 Nelson signed a 1-year long contract with Cartaginés.[4] Nelson made his debut for Cartaginés in the opening match in the Winter 2012, against Belén Siglo XXI playing the whole game. On 7 August, Nelson made assistance for the tie against Limón in Cartaginés 1-2 victory, after Hansell Arauz recovered the ball in 3/4 of field, passes to Nelson, running and leaves two opponents to make an assistance to Erick Ponce. On 28 October, Nelson created a play of a wall with Randall Alvarado, made attendance goal to Paolo Jimenez, in the game who lost Cartaginés 1-3 against C.D. Saprissa. On 7 November, he made a goal assisted by Eduardo Valverde in the game who lost Cartaginés 2-3 against C.S. Herediano.

In January 2013, Nelson quit Cartaginés because he did not want to play out of his favoured defensive position[5] and joined Saprissa on loan for a year.[6] He moved to Pérez Zeledón only a few months later.[7]

International career

He made his debut on December 11, 2012 in a friendly match against Cuba in place of Marco Ureña at minute 46.[8]
