Not many would disagree if we say Premier League side Aston Villa's Emiliano Martínez was the most crucial Argentine (after Lionel Messi) in Albiceleste's recent Copa America triumph.

The Copa America 2021 Golden Glove winner played a key role in his national team's campaign that ended their long-lasting trophy drought. During his tenure with Arsenal, it was the Gunners' first-choice keeper, Bernd Leno's injury, that provided Martínez with an opportunity.

The Argentine went on to win the FA Cup and the Community Shield with Arsenal. Despite having had a successful time between the bars for his team, Bernd Leno's return meant it was once again bench time for Martínez.

In mutual agreement, the 28-year-old moved to Aston Villa, where he remains one of the key players within the squad.


#2 Ederson Moraes - Manchester City (€50.00m)

The defending Premier League champions' goalkeeper occupies second spot on our list. Ever since he arrived at Etihad Stadium from Benfica, there's been no looking back from the Brazilian.

The multiple-time Premier League winner with Manchester City has also maintained a reputation for being one of the top goalkeepers in the Premier League on a consistent basis for quite some time now.

Having faced competition from Alisson during international outings, Ederson often played second fiddle to the Liverpool goalkeeper. Nevertheless, his achievements at club level have been better than those of his compatriot.

Manchester City are set to enter the 2021-22 campaign with a star studded lineup and Ederson Santana de Moraes remains a notable player.


#1 Alisson Becker - Liverpool (€60.00m)

The most expensive goalkeeper in the history of football, Alisson Becker is the top-ranked player on our list of most expensive Premier League goalkeepers at the moment.

A key figure within the ranks of the Liverpool side that broke the deadlock to win Premier League and UEFA Champions League trophies in back-to-back seasons, Alisson remains one of the top goalkeepers in the football world right now.

The 2019 Goalkeeper of the Year has won several individual and team accolades with both Liverpool and Brazil. His goal against West Ham in the Premier League last season was voted the LFC's goal of the season by the club's fans.

His injury-time header proved to be crucial for the Merseyside outfit, who were struggling for a UEFA Champions League spot.
