Martin Spelmann (born 21 March 1987) is a retired Danish professional footballer who played as a midfielder and current manager of Hvidovre IF's U23 team.

Spelmann is a defensive midfielder, but can also play as a fullback and wingback, as well as on a wing position on the right flank.

Career

He signed for Strømsgodset in February 2019, prior to the 2019 season, but was released from the club after one season.[1]

After a year at Mjällby in Sweden, Spelmann returned to Denmark and signed with Hvidovre IF on 2 June 2021.[2] In the summer of 2025, Spelmann extended his contract at Hvidovre until the end of the year, and was simultaneously appointed head coach of the club's U23/reserve team, which played in the Denmark Series.[3]

On 29 November 2025, Spelmann confirmed that he had decided to retire from playing, but would continue at Hvidovre as the U23 coach.[4] In February 2026, Spellmann was appointed as assistant coach of the Denmark U16 national team, replacing Nicolai Boilesen. He took on the role alongside his position as U23 manager at Hvidovre.[5]
