William Gallas, a former Chelsea centre-back, has kicked against his old club making a summer transfer move for Aston Villa’s Emiliano Martinez.
The Frenchman insisted that the Argentina World Cup goalkeeper will bring too much negative attention to the Blues if he joins the Premier League west London club.
Martinez has been linked with Chelsea and Manchester United this summer.in this summer’s transfer window.
However, Gallas feels Martinez would not be a good fit for Enzo Maresca’s side.
“Martinez is a good goalkeeper,” Gallas told Prime Casino. “Obviously, he was a key player for Argentina and has done well at Aston Villa since he joined them from Arsenal.
“But I’ve to admit, I’ve some serious doubts about whether he’d be a good fit for Chelsea.
“Name another goalkeeper who grabs his crotch and dances around when he makes a save, one goalkeeper who has done that who has played for a big club. You won’t be able to name one.
“Lehmann would never behave like Martinez. Martinez brings too much negative attention.”
