🚨 Chelsea seal Dibu Martínez deal, say Ornstein and Romano | OneFootball

Chelsea have reached an agreement with Aston Villa for the signing of Emiliano Martínez.

The deal, first reported by David Ornstein (The Athletic) and Fabrizio Romano, has been agreed as a permanent transfer worth £7.5 million. Around €8.8 million.

The 33-year-old Argentine goalkeeper is thus leaving Aston Villa after several seasons as the undisputed first choice. Martínez will sign a two-year contract with Chelsea, with an option for a third season.

The keeper arrives at Stamford Bridge as one of the leading international goalkeepers, a world champion with Argentina. His signing strengthens the goalkeeping department of a Chelsea side in the middle of rebuilding its squad.

Medical details and the expected date of his official presentation have not yet been disclosed for a goalkeeper who looks set to be the starter.
