Chelsea have finalised a £7.5 million fee with Aston Villa to sign goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez. Sources verify the news. The World Cup winning keeper is poised to make the move. Martinez comes from Argentina. People refer to him as Dibu Martinez. He is leaving Villa Park for Stamford Bridge.
Former Villa manager Steve Bruce termed Martinez being desperate to leave as a strange one. The deal puts Chelsea's current £21 million goalkeeper on notice. The club is now aiming to strengthen in goal ahead of the new season.
