Girona has been hit hard by the departure of key players such as Artem Dovbyk, Aleix Garcia, and Savio from the squad that made it to the Champions League last season, leading to a significant squad overhaul. Speculation is rife that more players could be on their way out of the club in the near future.
After missing out on signing Aleix Garcia, West Ham has turned their attention to another Girona standout, Arnau Martinez. Reports suggest that discussions have already commenced between the English side and Martinez’s representatives, with an initial offer expected to be made shortly to Girona.
Arnau Martinez’s contract with Girona is set to expire in 2025, and following a season where he struggled to secure a regular spot under the guidance of Michel Sanchez, a move to West Ham could offer him greater opportunities for game time. While Arnau is currently showing loyalty to his current club, Girona, talks for a contract extension have yet to materialize. If negotiations do not progress in the coming weeks, a potential transfer could become a realistic option for the talented 21-year-old defender.
