Aston Villa’s star goalkeeper, Emiliano Martinez, has committed his long-term future to the club by signing a new contract that will keep him at Villa Park until 2029. The 31-year-old Argentina international has been a key figure for Villa since joining from Arsenal in 2020 for £17 million, amassing over 150 appearances.
Martinez, who played a crucial role in Argentina’s 2022 World Cup victory, continued his impressive form last season. He kept nine clean sheets in 34 Premier League matches, helping Unai Emery’s side secure a fourth-place finish and a coveted spot in the UEFA Champions League for the first time in the club’s history.
This summer, Martinez further solidified his reputation on the international stage by featuring in all six matches as Argentina retained their Copa America title, securing a record 16th championship. His consistent performances at both club and international levels have made him one of the most reliable goalkeepers in the world, and Villa fans will be delighted to see him remain with the team for the foreseeable future.
