Report: Rennes keen on signing Arsenal goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez in January

Ligue 1 outfit Rennes are keen on signing Arsenal goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez in the January transfer window, according to Yahoo Sport FR.

The French side want a replacement for Tomas Koubek, who is understood to be leaving the club next month, and they see Martinez as a suitable option.

The Arsenal academy product is currently third-choice at the Emirates Stadium behind Petr Cech and Bernd Leno, and isn’t likely to become a key member of the first-team anytime soon.

Following loan spells at Oxford United, Sheffield Wednesday, Getafe, Wolves and Rotherham United, the promise of regular action could finally lure Martinez away from Arsenal.
