Emiliano Martínez on his way to Serie A

Juventus could soon welcome a new high-profile goalkeeper. Emiliano Martínez is reportedly set to leave Aston Villa, and the Turin club appears to be leading the race to sign the Argentine world champion.

After six years with the Villans, the 33-year-old shot-stopper is looking to start a new chapter in his career. In Turin, he is expected to become the first-choice keeper—a role Juventus is eager to strengthen following what was deemed an underwhelming season from Michele Di Gregorio. Talks between both parties have already kicked off.

According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Martínez's entourage and Juventus officials have recently held discussions to find an agreement on the terms of the future contract. The next step will be to convince Aston Villa, as the goalkeeper is still under contract with the club. A transfer to Juventus would represent a major new challenge for the man who remains the last line of defense for La Albiceleste at the 2026 World Cup.
