UEFA Europa League
The interest of Real Madrid in Martín Zubimendi is intensifying as the possible departure of Aurélien Tchouaméni gains strength. The Real Sociedad midfielder has been a standout name in recent weeks, not only for his impressive performance in La Liga but also for his desire to join the Spanish giants. Although Arsenal and Liverpool have shown interest in signing him, the player seems determined to wear white.
Since his promotion to the Real Sociedad first team, Zubimendi has proven to be a key figure in the midfield. His outstanding performance last season, which included his involvement in the 2024 Euro Cup with the Spanish national team, has caught the attention of several top clubs. Both Arsenal and Liverpool tried to secure his services in the past transfer window but failed to convince him to leave his youth club. The Gunners view him as a long-term replacement for Thomas Partey, while Liverpool has been searching for a new defensive midfielder.
Zubimendi on Real Madrid's Radar
However, despite offers from both Premier League clubs, Zubimendi has chosen to stay at Real Sociedad, at least for now. The situation could change with pressure from Real Madrid, which is evaluating midfield options in light of a potential exit by Tchouaméni. The white team sees Zubimendi as an ideal candidate to fill the void left by the departure of the Croatian Luka Modric, who reportedly could leave the club at the end of the season.
Zubimendi's arrival at the Santiago Bernabéu could provide a long-term solution for the "merengues" in their midfield, enabling them to maintain competitiveness in the league and European competitions. Looking ahead, Real Madrid's interest could further complicate the situation for Arsenal and Liverpool, who must act swiftly if they want to capture the attention of a player who has already expressed his desire to join one of the world's biggest clubs.
