Martin s family: He is in Villa like Maradona in Naples, without disputes

Hupu September 6th Aston Villa's main goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez's brother Alejandro was interviewed by Argentina DSports radio.

"I heard that Amy has paid a lot as a professional and as a player, they love him so much, you can see that on the court.

He is very popular and the management doesn't want to sell him because he's the key player on the team and the other team wants him, so that's a clear business strife.

These are the decisions of club officials. It didn't happen, but like other things in business. Sports things are left out and everything is good."

Bitzot has started two of the three Premier League games so far this season. Martinez was suspended in the season opener against Newcastle as he returned to goalkeeper position in a away loss to Brentford.

However, Martinez disappeared last weekend's match against Crystal Palace, and Emery refused to disclose the reason in a strange interview.

Alejandro said it was nothing, but he praised his brother.

"Amy never had a dispute with Unai," Alejandro added. "Everything is under the control of the management and there is no agreement between the clubs."

"In Aston Villa, he is like Diego (Maradona) of Naples. He has paid a lot in Villa, just like (Aguero) at Manchester City and (Messi) at Barcelona. They are all legendary players, and it is difficult to surpass his achievements in Aston Villa."

Meanwhile, Martinez's father Alberto added:

"It's a job, it's a factory, the factory has employees. He's just another employee, and if he performs well, the factory won't fire him. Everything is business. It will happen tomorrow, but not today."
