Super Agent Jorge Mendes to Facilitate Signing for Man Utd
Jorge Mendes Facilitating Emi Martinez Move to Manchester United Amid Deadline Day Push
The transfer saga surrounding Emiliano MartÃnez and a potential move to Manchester United has entered its final, frantic stages. With the transfer deadline looming on Monday, it is being reported that super-agent Jorge Mendes is now directly involved in an effort to facilitate a deal.
The urgency is further pushed by the fact that MartÃnez has been notably left out of the Aston Villa squad to face Crystal Palace.
Sources indicate that while Manchester United has already agreed personal terms with the Argentine goalkeeper, a final agreement on a transfer fee with Aston Villa has yet to be reached.
Villa’s valuation is believed to be around the £40 million mark, a figure United is now seriously considering in a last-ditch attempt to secure a new number one before the window closes.
MartÃnez’s exclusion from today’s squad is a clear signal of the advanced nature of the negotiations and the potential for a transfer to be completed in the next 24 hours.
The player’s desire to move to Old Trafford is a key factor, and his agent, Jorge Mendes, is working to bridge the gap between the two clubs. Mendes has a long history of high-profile deals with Manchester United, including the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandes, and his involvement suggests a genuine push to get the transfer over the line.
Despite having agreed a deal for Senne Lammens from Royal Antwerp earlier in the summer, the club is still pushing to bring in a more experienced, established shot-stopper.
The move for MartÃnez, a World Cup winner and a proven performer in the Premier League, would be a major statement of intent from the club as they look to solidify their squad for the season ahead.
The next 24 hours will be critical as all parties race against the clock to complete what would be one of the most significant transfers of the summer window.
