Aston Villa: the funny transfer window of Emiliano Martinez

But where will Emiliano Martínez play this season? At the end of last season, the case seemed to be heard. Aston Villa no longer wanted his emblematic guardian, responsible for his good results in recent seasons. However, the English club had extended it in August from last year. A real risk -taking for a goalkeeper who celebrated his 32 years a week later that management is paying cash. There are only two weeks left of transfer window and the 2022 world champion has still not found a taker.

This extension is one of the nodes of the problem. It has a very large salary on which few teams can line up. They are counted on the fingers of one or two hands maximum and most of them are in England. El Dibu Martinez had even approached Gestifute to manage his interests and a possible future transfer. It is not dreary plain either since the goalkeeper was cited here and there, first in Saudi Arabia, who could have put himself up to his emoluments, in addition to feasting the transfer costs.

Barça, Atlético, Manchester United are moving away in turn

Rumors did not last long. It is rather to Europe that we had to turn. Barça would even have submitted an offer to him, before heading for Joan Garcia. Atlético also has taken information without going further. Jan Oblak is still there even if his best years are doubt behind him. Long set back in this file but never short of information, Manchester United has come to the heart of the matter by making Argentinian its priority in the event of departure from André Onana. You will understand, the Cameroonian has never left.

Even today, it does not seem to be the case despite very irregular performance. Its price was set at € 35 million. The Red Devils have already spent € 230 million on the transfer market (for no sale) and its envelope has become too thin. Old Trafford had become the favorite destination of the former porter of Arsenal but it moves away. Recently, and as we revealed to you, Galatasaray looked into his case in the same way as Ederson, Gianluigi Donnarumma and Yann Sommer. Still missed.

A new door closes in Galatasaray

The Turkish club is off to bring the Brazilian from Manchester City, who to replace him plans to bring Gianluigi Donnarumma. A new disillusionment for the one had left Villa Park in tears last May. He found this stadium which loves his “best world goal” this Saturday during the Villans draw against Newcastle 0-0, but from the gallery. Suspended for this first day, he saw the former Brestois Marco Bizot maintain the draw while his team was reduced to ten. What will be in two weeks when all the doors seem to close?
