AS Roma has reportedly set their sights on Emiliano Martinez
as their top priority for the goalkeeper position.
Martinez’s exceptional performances during the World Cup have garnered significant attention, especially as he played a crucial role in Argentina’s triumphant campaign.
While Aston Villa can offer Martinez the opportunity to compete in European competitions, the veteran goalkeeper may still have a desire to seek new challenges elsewhere.
Martínez has an impressive record, having played in 108 matches for Aston Villa. Additionally, he was honored with the prestigious 2022 The Best FIFA Men’s Goalkeeper award.
According to reports from Corriere dello Pallone, Rui Patricio, the current goalkeeper at Roma, has failed to impress Jose Mourinho, the manager of the Italian club.
Mourinho, known for his stints at Chelsea and Manchester United, is now eager to find a suitable replacement for the former Wolves shot-stopper.
