Rumours in Spain stated that Javi http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786.
Bilbao star, Javi Martinez, was expected to leave the Spanish club for greener pastures, as Bayern Munich were planning on replacing Bastian Schweinsteiger, who is expected to leave the club in order to join the Premier League side, Chelsea.
However, Martinez’s agent has recently admitted that there no deal has yet been struck between the two parties and the Spanish midfielder is still a part of the Spanish club, Athletic Bilbao.
There were rumours which linked Javi Martinez with last season’s UEFA Champions League runner-ups, Bayern Munich. Reports even claimed that Bilbao were keen on selling their holding midfielder, who managed to impress throughout the season and was definitely
one of the best players for Bilbao.
Javi Martinez’s buyout clause is currently 40 million Euros and Bayern Munich are willing to pay off this price for the Spanish midfielder, who is currently busy in the Euro 2012 campaign where http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 have managed to reach the quarter-final stage and will
be facing http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899.
While speaking about a possible move to the German Bundesliga giants, Bayern Munich, Antonio Sanz said:
“There is no deal between Javi Martinez and Bayern Munich.”
Javi Martinez has managed to impress so many elite European clubs that many have made an offer on the Bilbao star. The Spaniard is not only linked to Bayern Munich; in fact, he is also under the radar of the Catalan giants, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604; and the Champions League
winners, Chelsea.
The sole reason why Martinez is being given so much importance in the transfer market is the fact that he can play in all the defensive positions.
The Spanish midfielder does not only play good in the holding midfield role; in fact, he can also play as a centre-back.
He was used by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marcelo-c23554 Bielsa as a centre-back for a lot of games last season and he was able to give out many phenomenal performances defensively.
The 23-year-old might be leaving for greener pastures; however, there is no doubt that he is one of the best players in the Athletic Bilbao line-up.
