Arsenal is keen to add Martin Zubimendi to its squad in the upcoming transfer window, with the club viewing him as an ideal signing to strengthen their midfield.
The Spanish midfielder is highly regarded by the Gunners, who believe he would be a valuable addition, particularly if Jorginho and Thomas Partey depart in the summer. With midfield reinforcements likely to be a priority, Zubimendi has emerged as a key target for the club.
During the last transfer window, reports suggested that Arsenal were working to secure an agreement that would give them an advantage in signing him at the end of the season. The club are aware that several other teams will be interested in his services, and they are eager to position themselves ahead of the competition in the race for his signature. While it remains unclear whether any such prearranged deal was finalised, Zubimendi remains firmly on their radar.
As reported by Give Me Sport, Arsenal have also identified another midfield target, with plans to pair Zubimendi with Hugo Larsson from Eintracht Frankfurt.

Larsson has been in outstanding form in the Bundesliga, attracting interest from several top European clubs. Arsenal see the 20-year-old as the perfect midfield partner for Zubimendi and is expected to intensify its pursuit of his signature once the season concludes.
The Swedish midfielder has shown immense potential in Germany, displaying composure, intelligence, and versatility beyond his years. Securing his services would not only strengthen Arsenal’s midfield options but also provide them with a young talent who could be developed into a world-class player.
If Arsenal are successful in signing both Zubimendi and Larsson, it would represent a major statement of intent. The duo would offer a blend of technical ability, defensive solidity, and forward progression, qualities that would enhance the team’s midfield and provide Mikel Arteta with greater tactical flexibility.
ADMIN COMMENT
So here are some simple rules which I must insist commenters follow….
You agree not to give any personal abuse to other Arsenal fans. Everyone is allowed to hold their own opinions even if you disagree with them. It COSTS NOTHING TO BE POLITE TO OTHER ARSENAL FANS.
What then happens to Rice and Merino?
Arsenal had better get a beast to add to the midfield, one who’s fast, skillful and can split defences,
There’s brighton’s Baleba and Minteh, but instead Arsenal would rather pick Jaoa Pedro,
Instead of a bulldozer like Dortmund’s Guirassy, we would settle for the one-legged Vlahovic,
We are always missing a piece, obviously the EPL is well managed to keep the entertainment at its fullest,
IMO, Arsenal gets paid to play it’s role in the EPL and is satisfied with being in the mix always.
To me EPL is like the WWE, planned and well mixed.
