This one is very unlikely but I would love to see Martinez at Arsenal. The Spaniard has amazing battling and passing qualities, making him perfect for that holding role. He is also capable of playing at centre back, something which could come in handy. At 26 he is just entering the prime of his career and if Bayern were to consider a sale, he would cost at least £35million. Having only just recovered from a nine month injury, Martinez is almost certain to stay in Germany, unless Guardiola decides to re-design his squad.

Likelihood rating: 1/10.
