Juventus are hoping to sign Emi Martinez as they continue to assess options to strengthen their squad, with the World Cup-winning goalkeeper emerging as a target in the current market.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the Turin club have Martinez on their list as they consider possible moves between the posts. The report, dated July 18, indicates that Juventus are looking at the goalkeeper as part of their transfer planning, though no agreement has been reported at this stage.
Martinez’s profile is understood to appeal to Juventus because of his top-level experience and proven ability on the biggest stage. The goalkeeper’s status as a World Cup winner gives him a pedigree that would make him an eye-catching addition if the Serie A giants decide to advance their interest.
For now, the situation appears to be at the exploratory stage. Juventus have been linked with several possible market opportunities, and Martinez is among the names being considered as the club weighs how best to shape the squad for the coming campaign.
A deal for a goalkeeper of Martinez’s standing would likely require careful negotiation, and the next steps may depend on Juventus’ wider transfer priorities. The club must decide whether to push forward with a concrete approach or keep the player under observation while assessing other areas of the team.
Martinez remains one of the most recognisable goalkeepers in world football, and Juventus’ interest underlines their ambition to add experience and quality. However, unless talks accelerate, the pursuit should be viewed as a developing transfer story rather than an imminent move.
