Girona FC is determined to secure the permanence of Iván Martín in their squad, following the interest shown by Athletic Club in acquiring the midfielder. After a summer where the team lost crucial players like Aleix García, Savio, and Artem Dovbyk, retaining Martín has become a priority for the club, which sees him as an essential piece under the leadership of Míchel Sánchez in the current season.

Throughout the 2024-25 campaign, Martín has been a starter in every match, excelling in his role and establishing himself as a reference for the Catalan team. However, a recent injury in the match against Slovan Bratislava will keep him off the field temporarily, yet this has not diminished Girona's desire to seal his continuity with a new long-term contract. According to local media reports, the club has already reached an agreement to extend his contract until 2028 and significantly raise his release clause, thus protecting the player from external temptations.

Villarreal and Athletic Want to Sign Iván Martín

Despite this effort, Girona faces an obstacle: Villarreal, Martín's former team, holds a buy-back clause that they could activate if they decide to reclaim the player. This clause, which was €4 million in the last summer market, has now risen to €6 million, a relatively low value that other teams, like Athletic, might find accessible.

Girona aims, with this move, to strengthen Martín, underpinning their sporting project with one of their most valuable players, and prevent his potential departure from affecting the club's aspirations in the current season.
