Villa happy to retain Martinez as Man Utd interest fails to progress
Aston Villa look set to retain Emiliano Martinez for the coming season after potential interest from Manchester United failed to materialise.
The goalkeeper had been linked with a move away, but Villa are now confident he will remain at Villa Park.
Martinez himself appears content to stay, reportedly dismissing a switch to the Turkish league as an option. The Argentine is understood to be fully committed to the club, ready to continue as Villa's first-choice stopper.
Although Manchester United reportedly opened preliminary discussions, no formal offer was ever submitted, leaving the door firmly closed on a transfer. Villa have welcomed the news, keen to maintain stability at the back following a period of speculation.
With the goalkeeper settled and eager to stay, the club can focus on the season ahead with their number one goalkeeper in place.
