Arsenal Targets Real Sociedad’s Midfielder in €60M Deal Amid Champions League Hurdle
This move aligns with Arsenal’s quest to bolster their midfield, evident in ongoing discussions with the representative of Everton’s Amadou Onana.
Zubimendi, a coveted target for Arsenal, finds himself in the crosshairs of several clubs willing to meet his buy-out clause, with Arsenal leading the pack. However, the success of this potential deal rests heavily on the midfielder’s decision, as recent indications suggest Zubimendi is hesitant to depart from his current club, Real Sociedad.
This isn’t the first time Zubimendi has faced transfer speculation. During the summer, he emphatically expressed his commitment to Real Sociedad, highlighting his desire to continue contributing to the club’s Champions League journey.
Arsenal’s task is further complicated by Real Sociedad’s recent qualification for the Champions League round of 16. Convincing Zubimendi to make a move becomes a more intricate challenge given the heightened stakes.
Zubimendi’s notable attribute lies in his tireless work rate, a quality that has undoubtedly attracted Arsenal’s attention. While the reported price tag is €60 million, there’s speculation that Arsenal might explore alternative arrangements, such as a loan deal with a buy obligation, to facilitate the transfer and address the player’s apparent reluctance to part ways with Real Sociedad.
