Emi Martinez appeared to bid a tearful goodbye to Villa Park following Aston Villa’s 2-0 win over Tottenham on Friday night.


The Argentinian goalkeeper was weeping as he waved to the crowd when leaving the pitch, which marked the final home match of Villa’s season.


Martinez has been linked with a move away from Villa Park this summer and Villa boss Unai Emery could not give any assurances over his future.


Asked about the 32-year-old’s future, Emery could only say “we will see”, with Villa forward Leon Bailey also in tears.


“Of course, it is the last match (of the season) here, and I don’t know,” the Spaniard said.

“We will see about the team, the players, but of course, they are responding on the field, at the moment they are responding and they are so, so focused in how we are preparing and playing each match.


“Of course, Leon Bailey is playing now less because other players are responding very well. They are performing well.


“And we are going to play Manchester (United) for the last three points. And for us it will be very important again, to prepare, to be focused everybody.


“And of course, then we will see about everything, how we are going to try to get better for the next season.”


However, Chelsea’s win over Manchester United later on Friday night saw Villa drop to fifth and they will sink further if sixth-placed Manchester City win their game in hand.
