On June 20th, Beijing time, according to the Argentine media outlet Ole, Manchester United has officially made contact with Aston Villa to start negotiations on the transfer of Argentine national goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez. Villa have priced the World Cut-winning goalkeeper at 40 million pounds, while the player himself is open to joining a top club like Manchester United.
Although Andre Onana is still Manchester United's first-choice goalkeeper at present, his inconsistent performance in the game has prompted manager Amolin to consider signing the experienced Martin to enhance the competitiveness of the goalkeeper position.
If the deal is concluded, Martinez will become the ninth Argentine player in Manchester United's history. The Argentine stars who previously played for the Red Devils include:
Belon (2001-2003)
Heinze (2004-2007)
Tevez (2007-2009)
Di Maria (2014-2015)
Roho (2014-2021)
Romero (2015-2021)
Garancho (2020 to present, future in doubt)
Lisandro Martinez (2022 to present)
The 32-year-old Martin transferred from Arsenal to Villa for 17.4 million euros in 2020. So far, he has made 212 appearances for the team and kept 70 clean sheets. At present, his market value on the German transfer market is 20 million euros.
