Manchester United will compete with Premier League team Chelsea for Aston Villa goalkeeper Martinez

Manchester United coach Ruben Amorin hopes to sign a new goalkeeper this summer.

It is reported that Manchester United will compete with Premier League team Chelsea for Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez.

The Red Devils have performed poorly in the Premier League this season, with Ruben Amorin's team currently ranked 16th and is about to usher in the final game of the season.

Manchester United lost 0-1 to Chelsea on Friday night, winning just 10 games in the Premier League this season, with only four teams scoring fewer goals than them.

Amorin is under increasing pressure to get good results, but the latest reports suggest that the team will remain at his side, even if they lose to Tottenham in Wednesday's Europa League final.

Manchester United needs to improve their stadium performance across the board before next season, but one player who has received a lot of criticism this season is goalkeeper Andre Onana.

There were rumors a few weeks ago that Amorin now “want to let him leave” Old Trafford and searched for a new goalkeeper by next season.

Now, Argentine international Martinez — who has performed well in Aston Villa over the past five years — has been linked to rumors of a summer transfer to Old Trafford.

Aston Villa defeated Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 on Friday night, and both Martinez and Leon Bailey both shed tears after the game, sparking speculation that the two players might leave in the summer.

In response to these rumors, Aston Villa coach Unai Emery did not do anything to convince reporters, saying: "Of course, this is the last game of the season, I don't know.

"We will watch the situation of the team and the players, of course, they react on the court, and at the moment they are reacting, and they are very, very focused on how we prepare and play every game well.

Of course, Leon Bailey has less playing time now because other players react well. They all performed well.

We will compete with Manchester United for the last three points. It’s important for us to be prepared and focus again.

"Of course, then we'll watch everything and see how we'll try to get better next season."

Now Daily News reporter Eduardo Burgos claims Chelsea, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are also interested in signing Martinez this summer.

Burgos wrote on X: "Dib" Martinez may leave Aston Villa this summer. It depends on the Champions League, but the player is eager to fight for the championship. Several clubs have contacted him: Manchester United, Chelsea, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. Note: No official quote has been received yet.

Another player with a link to Manchester United is Naples striker Victor Osmeen, who was loaned to Galatasaray this season, but now Football Transfers (citing GiveMeSport) claims the Red Devils have “quit” and the Nigerian international “requests a new club for a weekly salary of €475,000”.

Currently, Galatasaray vice-president Abdullah Kavukku has confirmed that Turkey is willing to offer a record offer to bring Osmann to Istanbul permanently.

They were reportedly willing to pay his €75 million transfer fee and match "the salary he received in Europe". "We talked to the President about Osmeen in January."

"We told Osmeen in January, 'We need you very much, don't go. We are working on helping you transfer.'

"We are developing a project for this." We made these projects to sit at that negotiating table, and now we are on the negotiating table too. We prepared his transfer and paid the salary he received from Europe. ”
