Overview

  • Martinez is considering a summer move to Manchester United as he seeks a new challenge at one of Europe’s biggest clubs.
  • United manager Ruben Amorim needs a reliable first-choice goalkeeper after Andre Onana’s inconsistent performances.
  • Aston Villa have placed a valuation exceeding £40 million on Martinez to help address the club’s financial concerns.
  • The 32-year-old’s contract running until 2029 gives Villa leverage even as Barcelona and Atletico Madrid monitor his situation.
  • Martinez has signaled that competitive ambition, not financial incentive, will guide his decision, making a switch to the Saudi Pro League unlikely.
