Juventus have concluded their efforts to sign Emiliano “Dibu” Martínez after negotiations with the Aston Villa goalkeeper’s representatives did not yield an agreement on the transfer fee.
The Italian club engaged in talks with Martínez’s camp on Sunday evening, but the discussions have now reached an impasse.
Juventus found Aston Villa’s asking price to be excessive and opted not to move forward with the Argentina international.
As a result, Juventus is now shifting their focus to Tottenham goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario as they seek a new option in goal.
Softfootball indicated two days ago that discussions between Juventus and Martínez were not progressed significantly after their meetings.
Aston Villa is now in the process of completing a deal with Parma for approximately €35 million, and the goalkeeper is anticipated to undergo a medical examination once the final steps are finalized.
Juventus evaluated various goalkeeper options while also considering Martínez’s recent injury concerns from the World Cup.
This latest turn of events effectively concludes Juventus’ interest in the 33-year-old, as their attention has now shifted entirely to Vicario.
