According to TA, Martin, the eldest, contacted Lisandro Martinez to recommend himself to Manchester United, but Manchester United did not give him a quote in the end.
On the transfer deadline, Damian Martinez spent the whole day at Aston Villa's base, waiting for a call about transfer to Manchester United, but the call did not arrive in the end.
The 32-year-old Aston Villa goalkeeper publicly expressed his desire to transfer to Old Trafford this summer, and even asked his Argentina national teammate and Manchester United defender Lisandro Martinez to help recommend him to relevant Manchester United personnel, and Lima did do so.
According to people familiar with the matter, Martinez also communicated with Manchester United coach Amorin about potential transfers between June and July, and Amorin believes that the character and experience of the World Cup champion will be helpful to the team.
However, Manchester United did not formally make a transfer request before Martinez returned to Birmingham for the preseason. It was not until then that Vera received a call asking about loan.
This potential deal has not been further advanced. On the day of the end, Manchester United instead agreed to sign Antwerp goalkeeper Ramons, who is a completely different type from Martinez. He was introduced as a competitor of Onana and Baindel, and he was slowly cultivated and grown.
From a purely financial perspective, Martinez's transfer is also very difficult. His contract with Villa last summer until 2029 was already above Onana, and Villa requested a transfer fee of more than £30 million.
As the transfer deadline approaches, Martinez finally recognizes the reality, leaves Villa training base, and flies to Argentina to join the national team led by Scaloni to prepare for the World Cup qualifiers against Venezuela and Ecuador.
At present, Manchester United, Aston Villa and Martinez declined to comment.
