The interest of Real Madrid in Martín Zubimendi It is quite recent and we have told you about it here from the first minute. His signing has already been explored by FC Barcelona in past summers, while the Liverpool sent a formal offer to the footballer, willing to pay his termination clause with the Royal Society. However, the pivot decided to continue for another year under the command of Imanol Alguacil. In this way, he rejected Arne Slot’s express interest in having his figure to give stability to the center of the field. red. Likewise, the Donostiarra Mikel Arteta nor does he lose track of the Arsenal.
Even more so with the possible future of Roberto Olabe in the gunners. However, there are few clubs that can compete with Real Madrid in terms of transfers. Only those that have external money, like Paris Saint-Germain or Manchester City. Be that as it may, the truth is that in the Premier League they don’t take their eyes off him and they will bid hard for him again.
This is revealed by the British portal TeamTalk, who has stated in the last few hours that Liverpool will try again to sign Martín Zubimendi. Likewise, in a different news item this same portal confirms that Mikel Arteta wants him at Arsenaland that they will also put all their effort into trying to incorporate the San Sebastián pivot next summer.
To tell the truth, Martín Zubimendi’s continuity in Real Sociedad seems very complicated. The player continues to shine in LALIGA, in the UEFA Europa League and also every time he puts on the Spanish National Team shirt. Therefore, no one in all of Europe can ignore the quality that the 25-year-old midfielder possesses.
Martín Zubimendi, between the desire of Madrid, Slot and Arteta
In this sense, the numbers are clear: the termination clause of the pivot is 60 million euros. That is why the offers prepared by both Liverpool and Arsenal would be destined for the salary of the footballer himselfnot at the cost of the transfer for Real Sociedad.
The truth is that Martín Zubimendi would cover, in one fell swoop, two of the objectives that Real Madrid has in the transfer market. On the one hand, it would incorporate a midfielder well gifted with the ball, something he has not had since the retirement of Toni Kroos. Likewise, the longing for Florentino Perez to ‘Spanishize’ the team. That is, sign Spanish players who can be references in the squad. Not in vain, after the injury of Dani Carvajal and Lucas Vázquez, the whites have played some games with lineups without any Spanish footballer.
On the other hand, Mikel Arteta likes Martín Zubimendi it’s no secret. So much so that celluloid ‘The Independent’ insisted a few days ago in the coach’s desire for Arsenal to incorporate him. Former colleagues of the stature of Mikel Merino o Martin Odegaard.
Likewise, Arne Slot confessed last summer at a press conference that Liverpool’s attempt to sign Martín Zubimendi was real. “We thought he was one of the few world-class players who could improve our squad. We tried to sign him, but he said no.. It’s a shame,” the Dutch coach revealed in the press room.
Be that as it may, it is clear that there is going to be a big fight next summer (or who knows if even this month of January) to get Martín Zubimendi.
