Real Sociedad is looking to secure 70 million for Martin Zubimendi, an Arsenal target, as negotiations advance. The player is viewed as crucial amid potential departures of key midfielders Jorginho and Thomas Partey. Arsenal, while needing midfield reinforcements, must consider their overall budget and squad depth, especially after prior significant signings like Declan Rice and Mikel Merino. The decision to invest heavily in Zubimendi may limit their ability to strengthen other areas, such as attacking positions, complicating their summer strategy.
Real Sociedad are reportedly set to demand as much as 70 million for the transfer of Arsenal target Martin Zubimendi this summer.
Zubimendi is undoubtedly one of the top defensive midfielders around, and he looks like he'd be a perfect fit for Mikel Arteta's style of play.
Arsenal might feel it's worth paying that amount as they need a top quality new addition in midfield with both Jorginho and Thomas Partey edging closer to becoming free agents.
Splashing out 70 million on Zubimendi might not leave the north London giants with much left unless they also make some major sales.
