Martin Dúbravka: The Impressive Rise of an Extraordinary Goalkeeper

A server specializing in Newcastle United wrote a few years ago. “Where would we be without Martin Dúbravka?” And immediately he answered: “On the way to the second league.”

Something similar is also true today in the national team. Slovakia is within reach of participating in the European Championship 2024. But where would it be without Dúbravka? Teammates admit he bought them off.

“He is a world goalkeeper for me and always will be. I never doubted him,” captain of the national team Milan Škriniar praised him.

As a child, Martin Dúbravka went to an art school, he also plays the piano at home in Newcastle. He was accepted to two universities, he reads a lot of books.

Newcastle team-mate Jonjo Shelvey said of him that he was like a textbook. Always the first on the field and the last to finish training.

Slovak goalkeepers had no place in the best competition in the world. Only Dúbravka changed it.

He caught 117 matches in the Premier League. They also wrote about him that he is the star of an English show. He was the number one player for almost five seasons, but today everything is different.

While he shines in the national team, he is a substitute at Newcastle United. This season, he did not catch a single match on the club stage.

How is it possible that he has such a form without practice? Will he be sold to another club and how much is he worth today? The agent talks about that too DAVID ZIKA from Global Sports.

This season, Dúbravka did not play any matches in the club. How do you explain his form in the national team?

He still has the desire to catch, he still wants to be a unit. With his performances, he proved that he does not belong on the bench. He reflected the desire that he still had it. The national team benefited from it.

I hope Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe was watching. I say that as a joke. Martin asked for a chance. If it is not in Newcastle, it will be in another club.

Newcastle’s number one is Nick Pope, who has several advantages. He is three years younger and represents England. To what extent can Dúbravka’s great performances in the national team affect his situation in the club?

It’s hard to guess. For us as agents, it’s material we can work with. It is very important for Martin and his confidence. He proved to himself that he is an excellent goalkeeper. Many players sold their performance in the national team.

International matches are very important. This was precisely the reason why Dúbravka got from Sparta Prague to Newcastle in 2018. Maybe fate will want him to move somewhere else again.

Former representatives such as Martin Škrtel and Róbert Vittek claimed that such performances must sell Dúbravka to a big club. It is real?
