Aston Villa FC announced on Wednesday the signing of Argentine goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez from Arsenal in a four-year deal.

The English club did not disclose the value of the contract, but English reports stated that the club paid about 20 million pounds for the 28-year-old goalkeeper.

“We are really pleased with the signing of our new goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez", Villa's manager Dean Smith said.

“We know how highly Arsenal rated him and we watched his outstanding performances last season in a trophy-winning top side", he added. “We moved for Emi when we saw the opportunity, as it is rare to be able to buy a top class goalkeeper who hasn’t yet reached their peak age and who can therefore be a key player for our Club for the long term.”
