Celtic and Leeds United are both keen on Arsenal goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez, according to The Sun.

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers is looking for a keeper as cover for the injured Craig Gordon and The Sun say he has approached Arsenal to see if a deal can be done for Argentine Martinez.

Spanish club Getafe, where he is currently on loan, would have to agree to let him go in order for him to join another club.

The situation is further complicated by the fact that Getafe are in talks with Crystal Palace about keeper Vicente Guaita and do not want to let Martinez go while there is a chance Guaita could leave.

Martinez has made only four appearances since making the loan move and has indicated he would like to go elsewhere, but he could move up the pecking order if Guaita leaves.

Leeds are also on the lookout for a keeper and Martinez has Championship experience, having previously been on loan in the second tier at Wolves and Rotherham United.
