Stade Rennais Looking To Sign Arsenal’s Third Choice Goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez In January

French club Stade Rennais are interested in signing Arsenal’s third choice goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez

The Ligue 1 side are lining up the Argentine as a possible replacement for current goalkeeper Tomas Koubek who is understood to be leaving Les Rouges et Noirs next month.

Emiliano Martinez has continously struggled to establish himself during his career with the Gunners, making just one appearance for the senior side this season in the 1-0 victory against FK Qarabag in the Europa League.

The 26-year-old joined Arsenal ten years ago after moving from Argentina and made his debut in 2012 against Coventry City.

Since his initial breakthrough to the squad however, Martinez has made just 14 appearances in all competitions and has been loaned out on four occasions to Sheffield Wednesday, Rotherham, Wolves and Getafe.

Reports by Yahoo Sports in France as quoted by Get Football News France suggest that Stade Rennais have made first contact with the Arsenal goalkeeper over a move away from the Emirates next month.
