La Derecha Diario Dibu Martínez received an offer from Manchester United for next season
Given André Onana's poor performance, the English giant wants to buy the Argentina national team goalkeeper in the next transfer window
In recent hours, Manchester United has reportedly initiated formal negotiations to sign Emiliano Dibu Martínez. Although other clubs such as Atlético de Madrid, Barcelona, and Galatasaray have also been mentioned as potential offers, the Old Trafford club appears to be the most advanced.
Currently, United's goal is occupied by André Onana, who arrived from Inter with high expectations but hasn't fully settled into the team. British media report that Aston Villa has valued the World Cup-winning goalkeeper at around 40 million dollars.
The possible farewell to Aston Villa
Dibu experienced an emotional end to the season in his last home match with Aston Villa. With teary eyes and a gesture that seemed like a goodbye, the 32-year-old Argentine goalkeeper left Villa Park in an image that fueled speculation about his future.
Although he has a contract valid until 2029, his cycle in Birmingham may have come to an end. Since his arrival, the English club has given Martínez the continuity he was seeking, establishing himself as a key figure in the Premier League and as an undisputed leader in the Argentina National Team.
Under Unai Emery's management, he was a essential piece in a competitive team that not only fought at the top but also achieved a historic qualification for the Champions League.
Dibu's performance at Aston Villa
The Albiceleste goalkeeper joined the club in 2020 from Arsenal, in a 25 million euro deal. Since then, he has defended the Villans' goal in 212 matches, conceding 256 goals and keeping a clean sheet in 65 matches, becoming one of the institution's emblems. His possible departure would mark the end of a key chapter in his career and the beginning of a new challenge in European elite football.
