Emiliano Martínez is one of the best goalkeepers in the world and this was confirmed by FIFA, by recently awarding him the 'The Best' 2022 award over Thibaut Courtois or Yassine Bounou. However, not everyone loves 'Dibu' and they are always pending any mistake to proceed to underestimate his outstanding level. Now, after the match against Manchester United, he received unusual criticism and surprised everyone in Argentina.

Although Emi Martínez won absolutely everything with the National Team (Copa América, Finalissima 2022 and Qatar World Cup), he has been questioned about his way of living the matches. In France they can't even see it, especially after the penalty shootout in the World Cup final. Similarly, in Colombia they have some resistance for what was done in the semifinal of the last continental tournament.

His detractors are always aware of any slip. Now, after the commitment against Manchester United, they did not hesitate to question the performance of the world champion, after having given a rebound that ended in a goal by Bruno Fernandes. Although his response to the first shot of the 'red devils' was correct, on Twitter they attacked the Aston Villa goalkeeper, who would say goodbye to the 'villain' box after the end of this season.

What clubs want Emiliano Martínez?

After his spectacular World Cup and his great season with Aston Villa, the Argentine national team confessed that he wants to fight for titles in the following season. Although he has a contract with the 'villains' until 2027, the club will not oppose his departure and expects to add 40 million euros for his transfer, according to the Daily Mail. Manchester United, Tottenham, Inter Milan and Juventus would have asked about him.
