Premier League club Aston Villa have officially announced that goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez will be switching to the number 23 for the new season. In an interview with the club, Martinez spoke about the reasons behind the change.
Martinez said: “I think I’ve worn number one for the last four seasons, but I wore number 23 when I won all the trophies with Argentina, and it’s also my son’s birthday. To be honest, I’m the kind of guy who likes to take on challenges, and that’s why I wanted to switch to number 23. It’s a special number for me and my family.”
