Emi Martinez to Man United Transfer Latest - Bid 'Rejected', Aston Villa Price Tag, Onana Stance - Manchester Evening News

WEST MIDLANDS, ENGLAND, JUL 22 – Aston Villa insists on a £40 million permanent transfer fee for Emiliano Martinez despite Manchester United's urgent loan bid amid goalkeeper injury concerns.

  • Manchester United made a loan offer to Aston Villa for goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez in July 2025, which Villa immediately rejected.
  • The approach came amid uncertainty about United goalkeeper Andre Onana's fitness, as he is ruled out for the season start with a hamstring injury.
  • Villa value Martinez at around £40 million and see no benefit in a short-term loan, while Martinez recently signed a contract extension until 2029.
  • Martinez, 32, is a World Cup winner and 2023 Yashin Trophy recipient, with United exploring alternatives like Antwerp goalkeeper Senne Lammers due to limited budget.
  • The failed Martinez bid suggests United must seek other goalkeeping options, while Onana remains intent on proving himself despite concerns about his form.
