33-year-old shot-stopper Emi Martinez has been offered to Chelsea by representatives. This comes after new signing Zion Suzuki was made Aston Villa’s number one.
This news also comes following Chelsea’s 3-2 win away at Fulham, where Robert Sanchez, who started in goal, made two high profile errors, which has put Chelsea in the market for a goalie.
As per David Ornstein, the Argentina World Cup winner is open to swapping Birmingham for West London. The experienced keeper has made 257 appearances for Aston Villa since joining from Arsenal in 2020, with the highlight being that Europa League Final win over Freiburg in May.
When Martinez was linked with a move to Juventus, Villa were looking for around €10M. The Villains are also exploring a move for Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson, which could work in Chelsea’s favour in their pursuit of bringing in Martinez.
