A collection of Tottenham Hotspur fans have been left extremely excited after seeing Emiliano Martinez linked with their club. 

According to a report in the Independent, the Aston Villa goalkeeper is top of the north London outfit’s list as a potential Hugo Lloris replacement.

As things stand, the French shot-stopper only has one year left on his contract. Taking that into account, the article explains that if no new deal is agreed, Martinez’s name has drawn ‘repeated interest’ from managing director Fabio Paratici as a backup option.

Beyond the former Arsenal keeper, Real Sociedad’s Alex Remiro, Napoli’s Alex Meret, and Sam Johnstone of West Brom are all also mentioned as potential targets.

The news was shared online by The Spurs Web and it quickly led to delighted reactions throughout the Tottenham fanbase.

What did these Spurs fans have to say?

Martinez would be perfect but also 60m, so write that one off.”
“Emi would be incredible, I would love it.”
“Would do insane things for Martinez.”
“Please sign Martinez, I’ll do anything.”
“I would take him all day.”
“Yes please.”
It’s not hard to gather just how happy these supporters would be if their club could pull off a move for Martinez. The Argentinian was very impressive during his first season with the Villans last campaign – playing in all 38 league games as well as keeping 15 clean sheets.
