According to The Athleticthe representatives of Emiliano Martinez offered the Argentine goalkeeper to Chelsea, who are now studying the possibility of recruiting him. At 33, the goalkeeper sees his future at Aston Villa dim after his failed move to Juventus earlier this month. The English club have since recruited Zion Suzuki to become their new number 1, while Marco Bizot has started the season in the Premier League.
Chelsea could therefore take advantage of this situation to strengthen a position which already raises questions. Robert Sanchez started on the first day against Fulham and was guilty of the two goals conceded during the defeat (3-2). Back after a season on loan at Strasbourg, Mike Penders was on the bench. Martinez remains a reference at the highest level after shining again with Aston Villa last season and during Argentina’s journey to the World Cup final.
