Martijn Meerdink (born September 15, 1976 in Winterswijk) is a football player who currently plays for F.C. Groningen.

A former player of De Graafschap, he was known by supporters for his crossing ability and his skill at getting through the defense in preparation to cross. However, in the 2005–2006 season he was made a substitute and replaced by an attacker due to his low scoring record: he only scored 4 goals in the 2004–2005 season.

He has one cap for the Netherlands national football team.

In January 2007 he moved from AZ to F.C. Groningen in a transfer worth ₤150.000.

Meerdink is the first Dutch footballer who announced to be gay in the media.
