In the fourth round of the Premier League, Villa will play away against Everton. Before the game, Villa coach Emery talked about goalkeeper Martinez.
According to The Athletic, on the day the summer window was closed, Martinez stayed at Villa training base, waiting for Manchester United's deal. Martinez has made it clear that he hopes to leave the team and communicated with Manchester United coach Amorin on joining, but the deal ultimately failed.
Emery said at a pre-match press conference for Villa away against Everton that he believed Martinez has now focused on Villa's new season and confirmed that he will enter the roster this Saturday and begins to integrate into the team.
Emery said: "All players have experienced various situations, some have left, some have stayed. At some moments, players are on the verge of leaving the team, and even some have players are close to joining. This is all normal, I fully understand."
"Martinez stayed in the team is good news for us. I am very, very happy. To me, he is the best goalkeeper in the world. We have the best goalkeeper in the world. He maintains a high spirit of professionalism, always giving full play to convey positive signals, and is always in training. Pursuing the ultimate and always respecting Villa Club, this has never changed. "
" There will always be various situations in the football world. But now all the players have returned to the team, and everyone is very happy. Today's training class is full of energy. Martinez regains his smile. He knows that his challenge is in Villa, in the Argentina national team."
In addition, Emery will usher in the three new players signed by the Closed Windows Day: Sancho, Elliott and Lindelof have all trained with the team during the international match day.
Emery said: "They will all be on the roster. They trained with the team last week and this week, but each has different situations. Sancho has not participated in joint training before, and his physical condition still needs to be adjusted, but he has now trained normally and was selected for tomorrow's roster."
"Eliot continued to participate in games and training at Liverpool, and his physical fitness basically met standards. Lindelof had personal training before and returned to the team two weeks ago. He can play now, but it needs more time to be familiar with our tactical system and play requirements. However, every training class is very important to these players, and they need to adapt to physical fitness and tactical requirements."
Villa will still miss two midfielders Bubakar Kamala and Amadu Onana, both of whom are in recovery due to hamstring injuries; right back Andres Garcia is close to returning. Barkley was absent due to personal affairs.
