Martinez criticized for overreacting

Martinez constantly attracts attention with his provocative antics.

Former footballer Emmanuel Petit frankly said on the Rothen's enflamme podcast: "He recently stated in an interview that he has never crossed the line. For me, Dibu Martinez needs to see a psychologist immediately. Obviously, we do not have the same definition of the line. But he must learn to control his emotions."

Petit continued to condemn Dibu's behaviour: "I don't think he has to express himself in such an extreme way to play well. He is a good goalkeeper, there is no denying that. But wherever he goes, he leaves an unpleasant image. Provocation is part of the game. But Dibu has crossed the line many times. He turns confidence into disrespect. It's time to stop."

Since winning the 2022 World Cup, Martinez has been a thorn in the side of French fans, especially after mocking Kylian Mbappe during the championship celebration. His teasing and provocative actions, although loved by some Argentine fans, have made him a "thorn" in the side of many people.

Before the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, losing 1-3 to PSG on April 10, the Aston Villa goalkeeper continued to attract attention when he arrived at the Parc des Princes wearing a cap with the titles he won with the Argentina national team printed on it. This was an act that was considered to be deliberately provocative to French fans.

"Martinez has made the world take his hat off to him with his amazing saves. He is a symbol of uncompromising fighting spirit. But along with his talent comes controversial behavior, causing his professional value to be overshadowed by side scandals," Marca wrote.
