Chelsea and Manchester United express interest in signing Martinez is being monitored by Tottenham, the Blues, and the Red Devils, according to TyC Sports’ Gaston Edul. On the other hand, Spurs are the team that is reportedly more interested in the 30-year-old goalkeeper.Despite the fact that Martinez’s contract at Aston Villa doesn’t expire until 2027, he is anticipated to leave in the summer. Martinez’s contract with Villa does not contain an exit clause, although he is rumored to be leaving Unai Emery’s squad. This season, he has been in excellent form with the Villans, recording 13 shutouts in 34 appearances across all competitions.
The former Arsenal goalie’s brilliance in the FIFA World Cup in Qatar earned him the Golden Glove title. He had three clean sheets in seven games and one of Argentina’s notable saves in the competition’s championship game.
In the summer, Chelsea will likely have a new manager, with Mauricio Pochettino being the most likely candidate. Due to Kepa Arizzabalaga’s inconsistent play, the Argentine might be persuaded to make a bid for his fellow countryman.
In 36 games, the Spaniard has 12 clean sheets. Edouard Mendy’s future is in doubt after the Senegalese goalie recently turned down a new six-year contract offer.

Meanwhile, Manchester United is prepared to offer David de Gea a new contract. A new deal has apparently been reached, according to the Spanish goalkeeper. The shot-stopper is not thought to have received a starting spot next season from Erik ten Hag.
After making some blatant errors throughout the season, De Gea is under pressure. The Red Devils lost 1-0 to West Ham United on Sunday (May 7) due to a terrible error.
Hugo Lloris is anticipated to leave the team at the end of the season, therefore Tottenham’s probable pursuit makes the most sense. According to The Daily Mail, the French goalie has one year left on his contract, but a transfer to the Saudi Pro League is being discussed.
