Martinez - Argentina call-up is a dream come true
Two games, two clean sheets and a call-up to his national team: it has been some start to the season for Emi Martinez.
Our goalkeeper is in a direct fight with Bernd Leno to be our No 1, and was recently named in the Argentina squad for their games against Germany and Ecuador.
“It's a dream come true,” Martinez said. “As a young kid, I always wanted to play for the national team. We've got two big games to play now, preparing for the Copa America next year.
“I’m more than ready to play for the national team now. I'm getting more minutes so my confidence is really high right now. I'm delighted with the call-up.
