N’Zogbia has impressed for Wigan recently and scored a goal in the 2-0 victory at Wolves on Saturday.
“The way Charlie plays, he has such an electric left foot,” Martinez said in the Daily Mail.
“Messi can go both ways, and he’s got a great finish. Low balance. The way he covers the ground, the way he works. It makes him a special player.
“Charlie knows he can go as high as he wants. He has gone on to a different level but I feel he can improve a lot still.”
