Emiliano Martinez has revealed many offers have come for him to make a switch from Arsenal in the past.
The third choice goalkeeper behind Petr Cech and David Ospina stated that he only chose to stay back because of Arsene Wenger.
He isn't getting the required playtime for now but the Argentine is happy at the club and has even signed a new long-term contract at the Emirates.
“It’s amazing that Arsene Wenger, one of the best coaches in the world, believes I’m the future of Arsenal, He said, as quoted by Daily Star.
“Just as amazing as having my contract renewed for six more years at the club.
“Wenger is very well-respected. He’s not only the head coach here, he also built Arsenal. He helped buy the stadium.
“Everybody calls him ‘boss’, from the kit manager to the owner of the club. He seems distant, but he’s always available to talk. It’s impressive.
“Cech is a great goalkeeper, he has a lot of stories, he’s in the top 10 in the world. We get along, he also says I’m the future of the club.
“Also Ospina, he’s such a professional! He’s a great guy and friend. I usually have dinner at his house, and I learn a lot from him.
“It’s an honour that the coach gives me the possibility to be the goalkeeper in a tournament [the EFL Cup], when he has those two.”
“Why would I play anywhere else when I’m a goalkeeper at Arsenal? What’s more, having Wenger say that I’m the future [means a lot].
“I may leave when I’m older. I was offered to go to other teams in England and Spain, but Arsenal wouldn’t let me go. They want me here and I want to stay.”
