Phil Jones tells Man United to sign Emiliano Martinez from Aston Villa
Former Manchester United defender Phil Jones has called on his former club to consider signing Aston Villa’s Emiliano Martinez to strengthen their goalkeeping department under new manager Ruben Amorim. Jones praised the Argentine shot-stopper, pointing out his wealth of experience and quality between the sticks.
“I really like him. He’s a solid goalkeeper with a lot of experience,” Jones said in an interview with OLBG, as reported by Metro. “When I think about the impact David De Gea had at United—how many games he helped us win—Martinez has that same kind of presence.”
He added that bringing Martinez in would be a smart move, depending on whether United want to stick with Andre Onana or go for someone more seasoned. “If the club decides to move for Martinez, it would be a strong addition. It just depends on whether they’re going for experience or someone younger they can build up.”
Martinez, who previously played for Arsenal, has been the subject of transfer speculation, with several clubs reportedly interested in snapping him up this summer, including sides from the Saudi Pro League.
Coventry City manager, Frank Lampard, speaks on team player and states how the player’s stance will help the team get into the Premier League.
The player is revealed to be Onyeka who he spoke about in the recent interview.
“He brings a different quality and probably a different profile to the midfield players we have.
“As I say, the profile is slightly different and I think that helps us in terms of the options and the competition in the middle of the park for us.”
Arsenal coach, Mikel Arteta, after their last match, shares an update on the injured team members after their last match.
He shared an update on Saka and stated that he is doing better after going through a hip injury. “His hip is improving a lot. Hopefully, he’ll be ready soon.”
He added about the other team members: “Martin is getting better and will be back in a few days, and Jurrien is fit for the weekend.”
Super Eagles footballer, Alex Iwobi, speaks on the World Cup and reveals their hope to play in the 2026 World Cup.
He shared that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is hopeful about hearing from them after they submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
“I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.
“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
