Manchester United step up chase for Dibu Martínez

Manchester United , trying to bounce back from a historic embarrassment in the Carabao Cup , is planning a last-minute blockbuster move in the transfer market and is speeding up efforts for Dibu Martínez . Will he say goodbye to Villa Park this Sunday?

According to Fabrizio Romano , a journalist specializing in the European transfer market, the Red Devils' management is determined to sign a goalkeeper (amid André Onana's very poor performance): the Argentine national team's goalkeeper and Senne Lammens (from Royal Antwerp in Belgium) are the main options.

He detailed that the management has already reached a personal agreement with Emiliano Martínez . Thus, the possibility of a transfer is growing, with the European transfer market closing soon (Tuesday, September 2).

Dibu, a symbol and world champion with the Argentine national team, has been an emblem of Aston Villa in recent seasons and won The Best award for the best goalkeeper in December 2024 (an accolade he had already received in 2022 for the World Cup victory in Qatar).

Now, with the European transfer market nearing its close, the goalkeeper from Mar del Plata—who will join the Albiceleste for the qualifiers—could make the leap to Manchester United , which is going through an institutional and sporting crisis. Aston Villa faces Crystal Palace this Sunday at 3 PM. Will it be his farewell to Villa Park?
