Much will depend on Martinez’s decision this summer. If Manchester United fail to strike a deal, Chelsea may emerge as the strongest Premier League alternative. Galatasaray remain serious suitors, while Atletico could step up interest if Jan Oblak leaves. However, it is believed that Martinez wants to stay in the Premier League.
