There are rumors that Real Madrid has decided to reopen negotiations to take up the Gunners and that Arsenal may be losing a midfield player soon. With Florian Wirtz and Milos Kerkez expected to follow Jeremie Frimpong and Armin Pecsi to Anfield, Premier League winners Liverpool has made an incredible start to this summer’s transfer window, and Arsenal will be uneasily watching.
In the meantime, the Gunners are still planning moves to improve a number of areas and have not made a summer acquisition. It is well known that Mikel Arteta and Andrea Berta are desperate to get a new top striker, and they have two preferred candidates: Benjamin Sesko of RB Leipzig and Viktor Gyokeres of Sporting Lisbon.
To increase their chances of winning the Premier League and/or Champions League the following season, Arsenal is also seeking to add a winger, goalkeeper, and center midfielder to their roster.
Real Madrid to make one last attempt to sign MartÃn Zubimendi
With intimate experience of Zubimendi’s surroundings, the Tolosa-born coach has told the Madrid board that his arrival would be essential to constructing the new project. He especially admires Zubimendi’s ability to strike a balance between defensive effort and ball accuracy. Not arbitrarily, the Donostia native was selected after a careful evaluation of the team’s shortcomings and the young center midfielder’s potential.
Real Sociedad is aware of the increasing interest and knows that if a compelling offer comes along, it will be hard to keep one of their best players. Zubimendi has always demonstrated dedication to his present team, but a transfer to a major European team like Real Madrid may be a game-changer for him. A possible transfer that could happen at any time during the summer transfer window is already being planned in San Sebastián.
However, understanding that this is a player who can make an instant impact and not simply a future investment, the Blancos are evaluating the best course of action to sign him. Zubimendi’s name is reverberating in ChamartÃn’s offices as one of the primary goals for the summer, and internal talks have already started.
