Emiliano Martinez förlänger kontraktet
Arsenal säkrar upp framtiden i målburen. Att få fram hyfsade målvakter inom Gunners egen målvaktsakademi har visat sig vara mycket svårt. Wojciech Szczesny var på gid väg att skaffa sig en legendarisk status i klubben, men efter en våldsamt svag insats mot Southampton, så gick den karriären upp i rök.Cech och Ospina har växlat under året och när English League Cup har kommit sså har Emiliano Martinez fått stå.Den argentinske 23åringen har varit i klubben sedan han var 16 och fått stå i en del cupmatcher, men också visat sig på styva linan när han varit utlånad. Nu får han ett nytt kontrakt av Gunners, som kanske äntligen får in en målvakt som faktiskt genomgått Gunners akademi.Martinez är naturligtvis själaglad och säger“It feels amazing to be honest,” the 24-year-old told Arsenal Player. “I’ve been here for six or seven years already and to have the opportunity to sign a new deal is a great achievement for me and my family.This is a big step for me, signing a new deal for Arsenal, training every day with big goalkeepers, big players and I feel like I’m one of them now. I really want to reach the top level.
“Arsenal means everything to me. I grew up here, I learnt English here and I’ve got everything in the UK. I love this club and I want to be the No 1 goalkeeper here for many years.
“Since I signed for this club, Gerry Peyton told me that I had great talent and that I was the future. I think this moment is now and I’m trying to push forward. The boss is giving me the League Cup and I’m trying to prove myself, to show the fans and everyone how good I am.
“It’s not just about playing well in a game, it’s about being the first one to arrive and the last one to leave training too. I’m one of them, which is why my future is here.”
