<p>After a forgettable outing in the 2024-25 campaign, where the club finished 15th in the Premier League, United manager Ruben Amorim is eyeing a major overhaul of the squad in the summer transfer window. As part of his team rebuilding process, the Portuguese coach is ready to part ways with Onana as United are <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/emiliano-martinez-desperate-dream-man-utd-transfer-summer-aston-villa-exit/blt22142779a6de3c92#cse3966d56b82a24e5" target="_blank">eyeing a move for Aston Villa's Emi Martinez</a>. As per ex-chief scout Brown, the Red Devils have made it clear that signing the Argentina goalkeeper is their number one priority.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Speaking to <a href="https://www.footballinsider247.com/man-united-ready-to-open-emiliano-martinez-talks-after-onana-deal-agreed/" target="_blank"><em>Football Insider</em></a>, Brown said: "Man United have made it clear they would like to sign Martinez. They’ll take whatever they can get for Onana, and then they’ll make contact with Aston Villa and see if they can get a deal over the line. He’s seen as a huge upgrade on Onana so they’re prepared to take a hit to get things moving. </p><p>"If Man United could swap Onana for Martinez tomorrow, they’d jump at it. Martinez is in his 30s now, but he’s a very capable goalkeeper and they’re not concerned about that. The only issue, as things stand, is that they need to move Onana away before they go for Martinez because they don’t want to end up with both on the books. They’re waiting for a bid to arrive so that they can accelerate things and start speaking to Villa. For now, it’s just what they would like to do, not something they’re able to do." </p>

WHAT HAS BEEN SAID

<p>Martinez has also attracted interest from <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/chelsea-enter-emiliano-martinez-race-aston-villa-manchester-united-galatasaray/blt73635a347053e14c" target="_blank">Chelsea</a> and Turkish Super Lig giants <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/galatasaray-ready-eur27m-double-bid-for-emi-martinez-and-lucas-digne-turkish-champions-look-to-beat-atletico-madrid-goalkeeper-signing/blta220b25c76fd8d29" target="_blank">Galatasaray</a>, while <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/emi-martinez-la-liga-atletico-madrid-want-aston-villa-goalkeeper-amid-saudi-pro-league-man-utd-interest/bltdd34adf09ffd3dad" target="_blank">Atletico Madrid see him as a potential replacement for Jan Oblak</a>.

Former Manchester United chief scout Mick Brown has claimed that the Red Devils consider Emiliano Martinez to be a major upgrade on Andre Onana. United are reportedly planning to offload Onana for a cut-price deal as they prioritise the signing of Martinez from Aston Villa. The Villans are ready to part ways with the World Cup-winning Argentine this summer.
