In addition to having a disappointing season for Manchester United, Andre Onana will be sidelined for more than a month due to an injury. In this case, Amorim wants a goaltender with PL experience, and the Red Devils are serious about bringing in a new goalie. TyC Sports said that Manchester United is the front-runner in the race to capture Emiliano Martinez from Aston Villa.
According to the Argentine news source, the Old Trafford team is negotiating a deal with the Villa Park club for the South American star at Ruben Amorim's request. Last month, GMS exclusively revealed that the £40m-rated star wants to move to Old Trafford. Martinez won three FA Cups with Arsenal, but the Gunners never gave him a fair chance. At Aston Villa, the La Albiceleste goalie has been brilliant and was even named their Player of the Year in 2024.
