Is Martinez era nearing it's end?
Fair play to him, he still played a vital role and was a big part of the Europa League. Ex-Premier League goalkeeper Joe Hart believes consistent stories linking Martinez with a move away mean boss Unai Emery has to consider the future.
Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez's future at the club appears uncertain, according to BBC Radio WM's Steve Hermon. Emery, the team's boss, is the one with the final say, and he may well be prepared to let Martinez go if the club insists on acquiring a new goalkeeper, Suzuki. Fans' memories of Martinez's emotional final game of the season before last remain fresh, as he was seen crying on the pitch and visiting all four stands.
Despite this, Martinez continued to play a vital role for Villa, including a strong performance in the Europa League.
Clearly, Martinez's presence at Aston Villa is coming to an end. Ex-Premier League goalkeeper Joe Hart supports this notion, stating that Emery must prioritize the club's interests. To accommodate a new goalkeeper like Suzuki, a contingency plan for Martinez in the Premier League is essential. Hart suggests that Martinez should still be considered as number one, but Emery must have someone else ready to step in if Martinez moves on.
