Manchester United has set its sights on strengthening the goal with a top-level goalkeeper, and their main target would be Emiliano Martínez, the current guardian of Aston Villa.
At Old Trafford, they aim to secure the signing during the January transfer window at the express request of Ruben Amorim, who demands a reliable goalkeeper.
The urgency in Manchester United's goal
Manchester United closed the last transfer window with the arrival of Senne Lammens from Royal Antwerp, but his status as a young prospect has not eased doubts in the goalkeeping position. Meanwhile, André Onana has been loaned out, and Altay Bayındır has shown mixed performances. Given this situation, the English club believes they need an experienced goalkeeper to provide immediate security.
Sources indicate that Old Trafford is looking to revive their interest in Martínez, an objective that was pending during the summer but could not materialize. With the winter phase around the corner, the chances of signing the Argentine goalkeeper become more tangible.

Why Emiliano Martínez fits the plans?
Emiliano Martínez has previously been scouted by Manchester United. He is one of the most outstanding goalkeepers in the Premier League, with international experience and a winning record, making him a tempting option.
Aston Villa does not seem to have a firm position to retain him if the sporting project falters. Martínez could be attracted by the scale of the red club, its history, and the opportunity to contend for major titles. Furthermore, the flexibility of his contract (open to negotiations) strengthens United's possibilities.
In fact, Ruben Amorim has identified the goalkeeping position as a crucial point in his awaited January reinforcements and sees in Martínez a leading candidate who can bring confidence and immediate competition.
Challenges and competition in the operation
Despite the appeal of the signing, there are obstacles. The price demanded by Aston Villa might not be low, and other clubs have also shown interest in Martínez. Even teams from different leagues are willing to offer financial incentives.
Additionally, Lammens has already shown potential, and Bayındır is having his moment; Manchester United will have to decide whether to go for a veteran as the starter or maintain a transition towards the young Belgian goalkeeper. Amorim will have to deal with this tension leading the project.
If Manchester United manages to secure the signing of Emiliano Martínez, they would add character, hierarchy, and solidity between the goalposts. Given the scenario at Aston Villa and their own ambitions, it is likely that the Argentine will seriously consider a move that allows him to compete for major titles.
The outcome of this operation will be a key chapter for the immediate future of Manchester United and will determine whether Martínez will assume the role of undisputed guardian at Old Trafford, as demanded by Ruben Amorim.
