Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez this summer.
Martinez is under contract at Villa Park until 2027 after signing an extension last year, but is likely to switch clubs during the next transfer window.
Tottenham are currently chasing the Argentine World Cup winner with slightly more interest than Man Utd or Chelsea, but all three clubs are keeping an eye on the former Arsenal goalkeeper, according to TyC Sports.
The current deal at Aston Villa does not include a release clause, but it has been reported that interest in the 30-year-old is very likely to take further action during the window.
He has been the club’s first-choice goalkeeper since joining from Arsenal for €17m in 2020. However, despite Villa’s recent resurgence under new boss Unai Emery, Emiliano is said to be looking elsewhere. while considering another opportunity in teams of the Premier League that are of the ‘Big 6’.
In 10 years at Arsenal, Martínez embarked on six different loan spells and made just 38 first-team appearances, most of them coming in his final season at the Emirates.
Is he leaving Aston Villa?
Goalkeepers are expected to be in high demand this summer as several elite teams are on the market for a new goalkeeper. Brentford’s David Raya and Everton’s Jordan Pickford have been linked, while Dibu is also admired by some of the biggest clubs in the Premier League.
Despite reports that David de Gea is set to sign a contract extension at Old Trafford, he could still be replaced as Man Utd’s number one goalkeeper, after a catalog of mistakes this season.
On the other hand, Edouard Mendy and Kepa Arrizabalaga could be removed from Chelsea, while Hugo Lloris is expected to leave Tottenham.
Martinez has kept 13 clean sheets in the Premier League this season, while boasting a save percentage of 73.6% in the division this campaign.
