Martinez fractured his metatarsal, and had to be carried off by Argentine pals Marcos Acuna and Gonzalo Montiel.
His injury ruled him out of the rest of the season, including the FA Cup final defeat to Manchester City.
But in a brilliant development, Martinez has now returned to the training pitch.
In a video posted to social media, the 25-year-old could be seen dribbling a ball across an artificial playing surface.
Wearing his United training gear, Martinez was able to jog with the ball at his feet, before kicking it at a wall with his left foot.
Fans were thrilled to see the clip online, with one posting: “I have dreamt about this moment.”
While a second tweeted: “This is great news.”
A third wrote: “Hope. The only totally good player at Manchester United.”

Red Devils chiefs, meanwhile, are eagerly trying to strengthen Erik ten Hag’s squad.
They have had three bids rejected for Mason Mount, although Chelsea have now named their price.
While they have also reportedly drawn-up a four-man shortlist of Mount alternatives.
United have also been linked with a series of goalkeepers, including Jordan Pickford, Andre Onana and David Raya.
