Emiliano Martínez
A goalkeeper built for pressure and big moments, with a presence that can tilt a stadium. Fierce in one-on-ones, commanding in the air, and central to Villa’s calm build-up under Emery.
Your Player Snapshot.
Martínez blends elite shot-stopping with strong control of his area and a vital role in Villa’s possession game.
He helps Villa play out under pressure with composure, sweeps confidently behind the line, and gives the defence authority because he claims space as aggressively as he claims saves.

Emiliano Martínez: The Big-Moment Guardian
Villa’s press-proof goalkeeper, built for high-pressure saves and calm first passes.
Martínez doesn’t just stop shots, he changes the temperature of matches. There’s an authority to him in the box that makes crosses feel harder to land, and one-on-ones feel weighted in his favour because he understands the striker’s hesitation as well as the striker does. When Villa are under siege, he becomes the player who turns frantic defending into something organised, the save that steadies the back line and shifts belief back into the team.
Under Emery, he’s also become a tactical piece. Villa want to rest in possession, lure teams forward, then break pressure cleanly, and Martínez is part of that rhythm.
