Deportivo Alavés and Elche both asked Genoa for information about Aarón Martín, a 29-year-old Spanish left-back. In previous weeks, he had also been linked with Torino and Atalanta. However, Racing Santander reached a definitive agreement with Genoa for his permanent transfer. Martín, who joined Genoa in July 2023, is set to receive a one-year contract with an option for an additional year. The player has 12 caps for Spain's U21 team. His current market value is €5.00m, according to Transfermarkt. In June 2026, reports suggested Genoa could accept an offer around €3 million, while in January 2026 their asking price was reportedly not less than €5 million.
