Indeed, Martin Zubimendi has been linked to Arsenal recently, and while Zubimendi to Arsenal isn’t a done deal yet, this one appears to be on the right track.
Liverpool wanted Zubimendi last summer, but it appears as though Arsenal have now beaten the Reds to the punch.
Speaking on Market Madness, James Benge has been discussing Arsenal’s talks with Zubimendi, and he’s shared some interesting insight into this deal.
The journalist says that Mikel Arteta and Arsenal have been messaging Zubimendi for ages about joining the Gunners, and now, a deal is extremely likely to go through in the summer.

Benge shared what he knows about the £50m man and his links to Arsenal.
The journalist says that Arteta has been speaking to Zubimendi about this move for a long time and it would now take a remarkable turn of events for this transfer to not go through.
“Zubimendi is extremely likely, it’s not done yet, but Mikel Arteta has been sort of, messages have come from Arteta and the Arsenal side for a long time convincing Zubimendi.
“It would take a remarkable turn of events for Zubimendi to not be in an Arsenal shirt at the start of next year, I would be really surprised if that doesn’t happen and it’s a credit to Arteta and the Arsenal recruitment team.”
Zubimendi record alongside Alexander Isak
Zubimendi looks set to join Arsenal later this year, but the Spaniard isn’t the only big-name player Arsenal want to sign in 2025.
Now, this is an interesting potential double swoop from Arsenal as Zubimendi and Isak have played together at Real Sociedad.
Zubimendi actually played 76 games with Isak durng his time in San Sebastian, and during their time together, they won more games than they lost.
