The Argentine still has four years left on his contract and Villa rejected an earlier loan offer from United in the summer. Old Trafford legend Dwight Yorke believes Martinez would be an ideal fit. Speaking to Jackpot City Casino, he said:<\/p><p><strong><em>&ldquo;Emi Martinez has a big personality, he&rsquo;s won the World Cup, he&rsquo;s one of the best at saving penalties, and he&rsquo;s got character &ndash; he&rsquo;s got everything.&rdquo;<\/em><\/strong> Interestingly, Villa are also monitoring Lammens as a potential replacement should Martinez leave.
