Manchester United have made contact with Aston Villa to understand the conditions of a deal for goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez, according to Fabrizio Romano.

Argentina international Martinez has been strongly linked with a move away from Villa Park this summer, even appearing to bid farewell to the fans at the end of the 2024-25 season.

His transfer has yet to materialize so far this summer, but the South American has now emerged as a concrete option for the Red Devils during the closing stages of the window.

Romano has revealed that Manchester United have approached Aston Villa and Martinez’s camp to discuss the possibility of a transfer before Monday’s deadline.The Red Devils are eager to add a new goalkeeper to their squad this summer after the failings of both Andre Onana and Altay Bayindir between the sticks this season.

Ruben Amorim’s side have been linked with a number of goalkeepers this summer, including Vanja Milinkovic-Savic and Senne Lammens.

They are in advanced negotiations with Belgian outfit Royal Antwerp over a move for Lammens but are preparing for the possibility of missing out on the young goalkeeper after failing to agree a fee.
