Martin Zubimendi

Martin Zubimendi To Arsenal – The Arsenal team finished the winter transfer period without adding any new players although they collected 50 points across 24 Premier League games.

The Gunners show outstanding performance on the pitch, yet Liverpool maintains a six-point advantage along with an extra match due to play.

The absence of attackers becomes worse with Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus out injured as Gabriel Martinelli faces a serious concern of extended absence after hamstring damage.

The Daily Mail reports through Sami Mokbel that Arsenal is not taking a passive stance. Arsenal plans to remedy their attacking problems by acquiring a flexible forward player and their projected iconic striker ahead of the upcoming transfer period.

The team anticipates that their new signings will bring vital backup to their struggling attack which suffered from injury wear and tear.

Arsenal is currently making preparations for a major transformation of their midfield department. The Gunners started plans to secure the midfielder positions following Jorginho and Thomas Partey’s contract expiry on June 30.

Arsenal Target Martin Zubimendi In Summer Transfer

The deal between Arsenal and Real Sociedad is progressing because Martin Zubimendi is set to join the Arsenal team. Sources indicate that Arsenal will activate Zubimendi’s release clause worth around £52 million to sign him this summer because the midfielder appears to be “certain” to become a Gunner.

The La Liga community recognizes Zubimendi as one of their premier defensive midfielders after Liverpool tried to acquire him last summer but he chose to stay with Sociedad.

The negotiations between Jorginho and Flamengo have begun before Jorginho leaves European football.

The Arsenal team currently aims to maintain Thomas Partey for another year because he played consistently while showing good fitness throughout this season. The club will most likely negotiate a new 12-month or longer deal with Partey if he stays injury-free through this season.
