Arnau Martínez has been, for the moment, one of the big disclosures of LaLiga in what to defenders refers . The one of Premià of Dalt adds a pair of goals and an assistance in 13 aparciones in the tournament (994 minutes) and, with alone 19 years, is key piece in the diagram of Míchel Sánchez for a Girona that follows struggling by the permanence to base of good performances like the one of the Saturday in Cornellà.

In this sense, the journalist Samuel Marsden ensures that the FC Barcelona will try fichar to the jóven defender in the future, maybe in summer. With agreement until June of 2025, the side has a value of current market in Transfermarkt of 9 million euros, by what his exit to final of season rondaría the 15 'kilos', depending on the position in which the Girona culminate the season in League.

Formed in the Catalan group, Arnau is a born right side with speed and good foot. His performance in the first stretch of the 2022/23 has emulated the done by Alejandro Balde in the Barça, although the culé has surprised also thanks to his capacity to play to profile changed, something that, for the moment, has not showed Martínez. The Saturday played the 90 minutes in the tie in front of the Espanyol (2-2).

On his party in Cornellà, Míchel recognised that "the first part worked very well. Has talent. We wanted it for the defensive transition. He can generate three against two by the band or can defend well the spaces. In the second was well. We suffer with Braithwaite. Perhaps it could have done a change to protect this band, but my mentality was to follow looking for the victory. It has not gone out us well", it explained the míster. Arnau Has been headline in the last five parties of the Girona in the tournament, after remaining in the bench in the tie in front of Osasuna (1-1).

The Inter also follows closely to the side

The good beginning of season of Martínez has not happened unobserved in Italy, where teams like the Inter of Milan already have him in his radar. The journalist Rudy Galetti ensures that the group 'nerazzurri' would be had to offer until 20 million euros by his traspaso in summer, but the Barça trusts that the roots culés of the side that went out of The Farm in 2016 weigh to the moment to define his future.
