Sky Sports pundit Tim Sherwood has raved about Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez amid speculation that Chelsea want to sign him in the summer transfer window.
The Mirror have reported that Chelsea are among the clubs who are keen on signing former Arsenal goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez from Premier League rivals Aston Villa in the summer of 2023.
Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are also claimed to be keen on Martinez, who cost the Villans £17 million in transfer fees when they signed him from Arsenal in the summer of 2020 (Sky Sports).
Former Tottenham manager Sherwood is a huge fan of Martinez and thinks that he is a superstar.
Sherwood said about Martinez: “There are not many goalkeepers out there with real quality. This guy is a superstar. He is a great character as well.”
Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez would be a great signing for Chelsea
In our view, Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez would be a very good signing for Chelsea in the summer transfer window.
The Argentina international has been superb for the Villans since his move to Villa Park and has established himself as one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League.
Martinez also played a key role in Argentina winning the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
The 30-year-old is at the top of his game now, and the chance to move to Chelsea could be very appealing to the former Arsenal goalkeeper.
Yes, Chelsea will not play in the UEFA Champions League next season, but the Blues will certainly challenge for the Premier League top four.
And we know that Chelsea are a massive club and a global brand who regularly compete for the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League.
