According to DSports, Manchester United is gearing up to present a formal bid for Emiliano Martinez. The Argentine shot-stopper has bid farewell to Aston Villa supporters and is attracting interest from several top clubs in this summer’s transfer market. Besides Manchester United, Barcelona and a few teams in the Saudi Pro League have also shown interest in the current world champion.
Although Martinez will turn 33 this September, this is not a significant concern, as goalkeepers typically enjoy longer careers than outfield players. Should Manchester United successfully acquire Emiliano Martinez, they may part ways with Andre Onana. The former Inter Milan star has received multiple offers from the Saudi Pro League and is willing to relocate to the Middle East soon. Previously, British media reported that Aston Villa had to offload Emiliano Martinez to comply with financial sustainability rules in the Premier League.
Last season, the player Aston Villa chose to offload was midfielder Douglas Luiz. It’s anticipated that Martinez’s transfer could yield “The Villains” between 20 to 30 million euros. During his final home game, the Argentine keeper was visibly emotional and waved to the fans. Known for his strong character, Martinez excels not only in reflexes and positioning but is also particularly impressive in penalty shootouts. With the stature of a reigning World Cup and Copa America champion, Martinez possesses the quality to compete for any major European club.
