Aston Villa goalkeeper Emi Martinez admits he wants to play for Argentina at the Olympics.

Argentina have qualified for the Paris Games after defeating Brazil in a playoff.

"If there's something I miss with the national team it's winning the Olympics," World Cup winner Martinez told DirecTV Sports.

The Villa goalkeeper also wanted to clarify that he doesn't want to steal a space from anyone.

"Young players always need a chance and, if we do well in the Copa América and win it, we have to leave space for the boys."
