Man United are very busy in the summer transfer window. They are now handed a chance to sign world-class Argentine star. The player is open to join them and can cost around £40 million.
Manchester United are said to make some key changes in their squad. They had a very tough 2024/25 season. Hence, many names are said to leave the club. Ruben Amorim wants to improve multiple positions. One of them is goalkeeping position which has been a weak link.
Andre Onana is the current first choice keeper at United. As of now, there isn’t anything decided about his future. But the Cameroon international has commited multiple errors in recent seasons. This has costed the club on various occasions due to which they can sell him.
Man United linked with Argentine keeper
The star in question here is Emi Martinez of Aston Villa. He is 32 years old and has been one of the best keepers in the world in recent seasons. Martinez helped Argentine to win World Cup and Copa America with his superb performances. Now, he is said to move away from Villa to join bigger club.
According to Ben Jacobs, Martinez is open to join Man United this summer. He is ready to join them without UCL football. But, he added that Onana has not yet been told that he is surplus. The Cameroon international is focused on the next season with the Red Devils.

Later, Jacobs reported that United had number 2 keeper as their orginal plan. But, this is expected to change due to the availability of Martinez. As of now, Villa have not received any approach. But, they are open to sell Martinez for £40 million due to their PSR situation. The Argentine is tied to them with a contract running until 2029 which makes thier stance in the transfer window strong.
