Villa happy to retain Martinez as Man Utd interest fails to progress

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.
