Mikel Arteta’s project is regarded as one midfielder away from unleashing its strongest midfield. The finest midfielders have been linked with a move to the Emirates. Real Sociedad’s Martin Zubimendi is one of these quality midfielders.
In this piece, I’d like to discuss the chances of the Spaniard joining. Spanish outlet AS recently revealed a big transfer boost for Arsenal in their pursuit of Zubimendi, claiming that Arsenal now has a clear path to sign the Spaniard after their other key rivals, Barcelona, dropped out of the battle for the La Liga midfielder.
As excitement grew over how the 24-year-old would join Arsenal and elevate the club’s midfield, another stumbling block emerged as it seems Bayern Munich hopes to beat Arsenal to his signature.
According to reports from Germany, Martín Zubimendi is Bayern Munich’s top midfield target this summer. And that the club will compete with Arsenal for his signature.
Gooners should take comfort in the knowledge that Arteta has previously spoken with him, and it is believed Zubimendi can foresee a move to Arsenal.
Ultimately, the team that signs Zubimendi will have recruited a valuable midfielder. He’s neither a Rodri-type player nor a tackling monster like Palhinha, but he retains his position and is strong in aerial or ground duels; at 24, he’s still young, so he’ll be a solid investment.

OT; massive breaking news at 11am Brtitish time this morning!
KLOPP has announced this will be his final season at Liverpool.
He says he is running out ot energy. PepLinders , his assistant and other leading club coaches will leave with Klopp!
Excellent player. Would be a brilliant signing.
But what we all want is a STRIKER STRIKER STRIKER!!!
However in the building of a team that would be widely fancied to win the title next season Zubimendi (And a STRIKER) would be an excellent acquisition.
Very intelligent player who is very similar to Frenkie de Jong of Barca who is a couple of years older.Either would compliment Rice in our central midfield as the injury prone Partey is likely to leave at the end of the season.Shock news from Liverpool with the impending departure of Klopp.I am not a betting man but I might put a fiver on Alonso to take over.
I like the look of Zubimendi in his compilation footage He looks talented but I was surprised to see that he’s only five feet nine, I do still like him though
