Manchester United have been linked to a summer move for Emiliano Martinez and the belief in South America is that he would prefer a switch to Old Trafford ahead of joining Chelsea
Chelsea have been offered the chance to strike a £45million deal for Aston Villa keeper Emiliano Martinez. Villa are resigned to being forced to cash in on the World Cup-winning Argentine in a bid to ease fears over failing the Premier League ’s PSR test and are aware that the Blues are in the market for a new No 1.
Manchester United have been linked to a summer move for the 32-year-old former Arsenal shot-stopper and the belief in South America is that he would prefer a switch to Old Trafford.
But United boss Ruben Amorim has other priorities to address this summer and will be unable to buy a new No 1 unless the Reds find a club willing to pay £35million for Andre Onana.
And that has opened the door for Chelsea to step up their bid after Robert Sanchez and Filip Jorgensen both failed to impress under boss Enzo Maresca.
Martinez has a huge admirer at Stamford Bridge in the shape of assistant manager Willy Caballero. He has been exceptional during his six years at Villa Park and was hailed as the world ’s best goalkeeper after excelling for Argentina as they prevailed in Qatar in 2022.

It is obvious that most people here talking about his price tag have not taken a business class to understand what a relative scarcity means. Even with his age, he is miles and miles ahead of the competition. There are 3 great proven GK in the EPL. Allison, Ederson, and Martinez. That said, there is not an abundance of great GK. In addition, they are not outfield players, meaning they usually have a longer career than outfield players. Factor all those aspects in to see why it is still a good price tag even with his age.

I will seriously advise Chelsea NOT to be fooled in paying 45m for Gk Martinez at 32yrs. The club better go for Maignan of AC Milan or better still bring in Petrovic for free to replace that Unreliable Sanchez. Did many see another blunder he committed ystday when he passed d ball to an opponent . Sanchez is for Carabao Cup competition & NOT UEFA champions league matches.

If truly Emiliano Martinez, 32 is valued at about £45 then ter Stegen, 33 and his likes in Barcelona are a constant ripe off on Barcelona finances. But then again, i need to know the club that would be willing to pay about £35m for Onana.

Chelsea wants everyone. soon you'll here my name on the list
do you see how illiterate you are, the story said Chelsea was offered a chance, not that Chelsea want to, probably Aston villa or his agent contacted Chelsea regarding of transfer
