Manchester United step up chase for Dibu Martínez | OneFootball

Manchester United, trying to bounce back after a historic embarrassment in the Carabao Cup, is planning one last big move in the transfer market and is accelerating talks 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 performances): the Argentine national team 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. This makes a transfer more likely, with just days left before the European transfer window closes (on Tuesday, September 2).

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

Now, with the European transfer window about to close, the Mar del Plata-born goalkeeper—who will join the Albiceleste for the World Cup qualifiers—could make the jump to Manchester United, a club currently facing an institutional and sporting crisis. Aston Villa faces Crystal Palace this Sunday at 3 pm. Will this be his farewell to Villa Park?
