He almost ruined Dibu Martínez's career, now the worst possible karma comes to him

Before becoming one of the best goalkeepers for the Argentine national team in history and shining in Europe, Emiliano Martínez was close to professional retirement. He was ignored in more than one team, but his life gave him the opportunity to show his skills at Aston Villa and the rest is history. Now, a coach who almost caused the disappointment of 'Dibu', has a bad time and is going to complete a year without leading any team.

Emi Martínez came to European football more than 10 years ago with a backpack full of dreams. However, things would not turn out as he originally dreamed. After being signed by the English Arsenal and due to the lack of space, he had to go from one club to another on loan and in the midst of uncertainty about whether he would consolidate himself in the Old Continent.

During the 2017-2018 season, the 'Gunners' loaned the goalkeeper of the Argentine team to Getafe, where he was practically erased. He barely played in five games and, in the midst of his bad moment, he analyzed his future in football. Fortunately, the support of his family and psychological help channeled the emotions of the goalkeeper, who years later was key to the Albiceleste winning three titles in just a year and a half.

It is about José Bordalás. The Spanish coach directed him at Getafe and did not give him the confidence to become a starter. Now, karma comes to the manager, who has not directed any club since 2022. Recently, he was rejected by Sevilla, who was looking for a coach after Jorge Sampaoli's farewell. While nobody wants Bordalás, 'Dibu' is a figure in the Premier League, was chosen as 'The Best' for the best goalkeeper of 2022 and won the World Cup in Qatar.
