Argentina goalkeeper Martinez s reaction is unexpected

After being rejected by Manchester United, Martinez's reaction was unexpected

In the second choice of goalkeeper, Manchester United finally chose Antwerp's Sunne Ramons instead of Damian Martinez, who had previously been more popular. On August 31, local time, Manchester United officially signed Belgian star Ramons, who was only 23 years old, with a total price of 21 million euros, including additional terms. The deal also marks Manchester United's complete abandonment of Martinez, who had previously reached personal terms.

However, after the deal fell apart, Martinez showed no loss or frustration. He shared a photo of himself at the airport on his personal social media, looking relaxed and happy, and was about to set off to return to the Argentina national team to participate in the international match day event in September.

It is reported that the cost of introducing Martinez is as high as £40 million, which is considered too high for a 32-year-old goalkeeper. Therefore, the club finally decided to give up the signing and instead invest in the younger Ramons.

In the past two years, under the leadership of coach Unai Emery, Martinez has become the absolute core of Villa Park Stadium. However, as Aston Villa has faced financial pressure in recent years and Martinez's contract with the club will last until June 2027, leaving the team this summer was once considered the best result that all parties can accept.

It is worth noting that in the third round of the Premier League that ended last weekend, Emery had excluded Martinez from the roster against Crystal Palace, and the team eventually lost 0-3. After the game, the Spanish coach publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with his disciples: "What we need is players who are 100% focused on the club, and he obviously does not have such a state at the moment."
