Emiliano has been a fighter throughout his career journey

  • Emiliano’s professional path was not without bumps. He had to struggle for what he had accomplished and his current position. He was with Arsenal for twelve years but was largely loaned out.
  • According to Emiliano, he felt he wouldn’t make it in the first year because there were nine goalies in front of him.
  • He was aware of his abilities, but lacked self-confidence. He quit appreciating football at some point in his career because his patience was being strained. He was 23 when he moved on his first loan to Spain, where he played only six games.
  • He knew he needed to return to Arsenal, but they wouldn’t give him a chance, so he’d have to go on loan. It had been a difficult year, and he wanted a Psychologist to help him vent his feelings.
  • Then he was on the bench for Community Shield, where he won the FA Cup and three Community Shields, but he still didn’t feel like he belonged.
  • He never felt he had won since he was not given the time he need. He had to go out on loan several times before he could become the goalkeeper he is now.
  • Arsenal tried to keep him after he won those titles, FA Cups and Community Shields, before he left to Aston Villa.
  • Emiliano describes his relocation to The Villa as life-changing and expresses gratitude for the opportunity to play in every League game.
  • In his debut season at Villa Park, he kept 15 clean sheets in the Premier League.
  • Aside from that, he has become a national hero after saving three penalties for Argentina in a penalty shootout to take his team to the Copa America 2021 final, which they subsequently won.
  • He was awarded the 2021 Copa America’s Golden Glove Award for being the tournament’s top goalie for his remarkable performance.
