Emiliano Martinez has reportedly received a more attractive contract offer from FC Barcelona, as the club is uncertain about retaining Wojciech Szczęsny for the upcoming season and intends to introduce competition for the goalkeeper position alongside Marc-André ter Stegen. Although Martinez recently extended his contract with Aston Villa until 2029, he is expected to depart the club this summer as they look to generate funds. Concerns over a potential decline in his market value have led Aston Villa to consider offers. Barcelona, eager to enhance their goalkeeping options, have approached Martinez with a significant proposal in hopes of securing his services. Concurrently, Aston Villa are preparing for his exit by targeting Espanyol's Joan Garcia, who has a release clause of 30 million euros.
