Emi Martinez transfer race heats up as Chelsea and Man Utd enter the fray

 

Manchester United are reportedly among three Premier League clubs interested in Aston Villa’s Emiliano Martinez.

That’s according to an update from Argentine reporter Gaston Edul of TyC Sports, who tweeted that the goalkeeper is likely to leave the Midlands club in the summer transfer window.

Es probable que Dibu Martínez cambie de club en junio. No tiene cláusula de salida. Hay tres clubes de la Premier League que lo tienen en carpeta:
Tottenham -con más interés, Chelsea y Manchester United.
Muy probablemente dé un paso más hacia adelante en el próximo mercado. pic.twitter.com/14es5ufT9A

 United, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are monitoring the situation, with the latter believed to be holding the most interest, as they look to replace club captain Hugo Lloris.

Martinez played a crucial role in Argentina’s World Cup campaign last winter which saw them crowned world champions for the third time in their history.

The 30-year-old is also invaluable to Villa and would leave big boots to fill between the sticks if he does seek a move away at the end of the season.
