Juventus have not given up on signing Emiliano Martinez this summer and have scheduled a fresh round of talks as they [continue their efforts to bring the Aston Villa goalkeeper to Turin](https://talkjuve.com/2026/06/25/aston-villa-reduces-their-asking-price-for-juventus-target/).
The Argentina international appears open to the move as he seeks a new challenge, despite enjoying a successful spell in the Premier League.
Martinez is regarded as one of the finest and most highly rated goalkeepers in the game, and Juventus believe he would represent a significant upgrade on Michele Di Gregorio.
Juventus continue pursuit of Martinez
-------------------------------------
Aston Villa had prepared for the possibility of Martinez leaving and were willing to listen to offers for his signature last summer. However, no club was able to meet the terms required to complete a transfer.
Martinez remains one of the leading goalkeepers in world football, and Juventus are continuing to work towards securing his signature ahead of the new season.
The Bianconeri are determined to strengthen their goalkeeping department and remain hopeful that progress can be made during the current transfer window.
Fresh talks planned over potential transfer
-------------------------------------------
According to [Sky Sports](https://sport.sky.it/calciomercato/2026/07/07/dibu-martinez-juventus-calciomercato-news), Juventus have scheduled a new meeting with Martinez’s representatives in the coming days to gain a better understanding of what will be required to complete the transfer.
Martinez is currently focused on helping Argentina at the World Cup, but his representatives are able to begin discussions while he remains on international duty.
Juventus hope the meeting will be productive and provide greater clarity on the conditions needed to reach an agreement. The club remain optimistic that they can move the negotiations forward in the coming weeks once Martinez’s involvement at the World Cup comes to an end.
