Chelsea have struck a £7.5 million fee with Aston Villa to sign goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez. Sources confirm the news. The World Cup winning keeper is poised to make the move. Martinez comes from Argentina. People call him Dibu Martinez. He is departing Villa Park for Stamford Bridge.
Former Villa manager Steve Bruce termed Martinez being desperate to leave as a strange one. The agreement places Chelsea's current £21 million goalkeeper under pressure. The club is now set to strengthen in goal before the new season.
