Aston Villa's goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez is eager to join Manchester United this summer, viewing it as a "dream" transfer for the Argentine international, according to The Sun. This desire stems from the uncertainty surrounding Manchester United's current first-choice goalkeeper, Andre Onana.

The report indicates that Manchester United's head coach, Ruben Amorim, is seeking "captains and leaders" for a major squad rebuild. The Portuguese manager is a strong admirer of the 2022 World Cup-winning goalkeeper. Amorim had attempted to sign Martinez for Sporting CP in 2020 but lost out to Aston Villa. He may now realize his ambition to work with Martinez, especially after the 32-year-old appeared to bid an emotional farewell to Villa in May.

Manchester United is considering selling Onana this summer following his disappointing performances over the past two seasons. AS Monaco is monitoring the situation and would welcome the opportunity to sign him.

Martinez has received offers from Galatasaray but has delayed them in anticipation of a bid from Manchester United. Meanwhile, Aston Villa is already preparing for his potential exit by targeting the highly-rated Lille goalkeeper, Lucas Chevalier.
