Íñigo Martínez is at the center of attention at Barcelona. With a contract until next June, the Basque center-back is a pillar in Hansi Flick's scheme, accumulating over 2000 minutes in 24 matches during the first part of the season. However, his contractual situation has not gone unnoticed, and Manchester United has emerged as a potential suitor to secure the defender's services in case he does not reach a renewal agreement with the Blaugrana.

Manchester United, highly interested in Íñigo Martínez

The importance of the former Athletic Club player in the Culés team has been evident since his arrival. His defensive solidity, leadership in the backline, and ability to play the ball out have made him an indispensable element for the German coach. Flick has placed full trust in Martínez, who has responded with consistent performances and a commitment that leaves no doubts about his quality. However, the lack of progress in negotiations to extend his contract with the Catalonian club has raised concerns.

From England, Manchester United closely monitors the situation of the Spanish defender. The Red Devils see in Martínez a solution to their defensive issues, which have worsened this season. The possibility of acquiring the 33-year-old center-back without a transfer fee is particularly attractive to Old Trafford's club, which would be willing to offer a tempting contract to ensure his arrival in the summer.

While Barcelona works on finalizing the renewal of one of their mainstays, United's interest threatens to complicate the negotiations. The upcoming months will be decisive in defining the future of the defender, whose continuity is a priority for the Blaugrana project but who does not rule out becoming one of the most talked-about moves in the upcoming summer transfer window.
