Aston Villa have made their position on Emiliano Martínez crystal clear, with director Damian Vidagany insisting the Argentine goalkeeper will remain at the club despite growing transfer speculation this summer.
Softfootball reports that Villa have no intention of parting ways with their first-choice goalkeeper, even as Juventus continue to show interest in Martínez as part of their summer transfer plans. The Italian giants are believed to admire the World Cup winner’s experience and leadership, but Aston Villa remain determined to keep him at Villa Park.
Vidagany dismissed suggestions that Martínez could leave, stating:
Martínez will stay with us, we have no intention of letting him leave this summer.
He also stressed the goalkeeper’s importance to the club’s ambitions for the upcoming campaign.
The team needs his dedication and extensive experience. He is a very important element in our project for next season.
Martínez has established himself as one of the Premier League’s top goalkeepers since joining Aston Villa, playing a crucial role in the club’s recent success under Unai Emery. His performances, leadership, and winning mentality have made him an indispensable figure in the dressing room.
Although Juventus are expected to continue monitoring the Argentine international, Aston Villa’s latest stance leaves little room for negotiation, with the club determined to build around one of their most influential players ahead of the new season.
