It seemed old to them, the lesson from Dibu Martínez to Manchester United

Emiliano Martínez has been showing for a long time that he is one of the best goalkeepers in the world (if not the best) and that he has the ability to play for any team in the world. He showed his ability with the Argentine team in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, being a figure in the final and in two penalty shootouts. Without a doubt, Aston Villa enjoys it day after day. Meanwhile, Manchester United seem to be suffering from not signing him.

The 31-year-old goalkeeper has been key in this Premier League team and the last match in the UEFA Conference League also demonstrated all his talent with a key one-on-one. Thus, game by game, he shows that he is essential there and leaves Lionel Scaloni even more calm in these latitudes. Those who are not very happy are surely the fans of the team led by Erik ten Hag, who missed the chance to sign him because they believed that his price was high for his age.

Dibu Martínez was clear and said that he would not leave Aston Villa if the money they offered did not work for the club. In that context, those from Birmingham asked for 45 million euros to let him leave the team. After that, Manchester United dropped out of the fight to incorporate him after the departure of David De Gea and instead decided to hire André Onana, a younger goalkeeper who had just been a UEFA Champions League finalist with Inter.

The lesson of Dibu Martínez to Manchester United

In the last few hours it was demonstrated, at least according to the opinion of many fans, that the English giant was wrong in not hiring the Argentine goalkeeper. The thing is that while Dibu Martínez provides security in all matches, Onana continues to make mistakes. This Saturday he positioned himself very poorly in the goal and after a shot that seemed simple, the ball went under his hand. It was clear that the play went quite badly for the Red Devils.
