Emiliano Martinez has switched Chelsea squad numbers after just one match with the Argentine taking up the No1 shirt. Martinez completed a £7.5million move from Aston Villa last week and wore the No26 when he made his debut against Brighton. The 34-year-old's arrival led to Robert Sanchez's departure from the club with the Spaniard joining Como in a loan move on deadline day.
OLIVER HOLT AT VILLA PARK: On Witton Lane‚ just beyond where The Holte pub stands proudly at the junction with Trinity Road‚ Aston Villa supporters slowed and stopped to gaze at a wall. A crestfallen lad of seven or eight asked his dad what had happened to the images that once adorned it. Older men‚ inured to football's fleeting loyalties‚ smiled wryly at the speed of the erasing. Three faces had stared out from that wall until the weekend. Ollie Watkins was first‚ eyes front and fist clenched. Rachel Daly had been in the middle. Last‚ nearest the Holte End‚ Emiliano Martinez had stood with his finger pressed to his lips. Now‚ a couple of hours before the Arsenal game‚ they had all been painted over. Disappeared. All that remained was a broad expanse of deep purple. It is a bit harsh on Daly‚ who is still the women's club captain‚ but she is collateral damage in the midst of the men's exodus. Watkins fled Villa for Saudi riches‚ as if he wasn't paid well enough‚ and Martinez left in haste at the end of last week for Chelsea. They are non-persons here now‚ symbols of desertion and change at the start of a season shrouded in uncertainty.
Emiliano Martinez has vowed to help Chelsea win titles after completing a £7.5m move from Aston Villa - and could be thrown straight into the starting line-up. The Blues confirmed the arrival of the 33-year-old on Sunday morning‚ with Martinez signing a three-year deal. Martinez is understood to be eligible to immediately represent Chelsea against Brighton today‚ with sources telling Daily Mail Sport that the goalkeeper was registered before the deadline.
Emi Martinez is poised to join Chelsea from Aston Villa for £7.5million - the fourth deal involving the clubs this summer. The Argentina goalkeeper has been surplus to requirements at Villa Park since the club signed Zion Suzuki from Parma earlier this month. It means Martinez‚ Lucas Digne‚ Ollie Watkins and Youri Tielemans should all have left by the end of the transfer window - and they were four of Villa's highest earners.
