Arsenal Signs Spain Midfielder Zubimendi for £61m From Real Sociedad
Arsenal has secured the signing of Spanish midfielder Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad in a deal reported between £51 million and £61 million, with the club willing to pay above his release clause to facilitate the transfer. Zubimendi, a highly regarded player known for his calmness, strategic play, and exceptional passing ability, is seen as a crucial addition to replace departing midfielders Thomas Partey and Jorginho and to anchor Arsenal's midfield. Manager Mikel Arteta has long targeted Zubimendi, having tracked him for over a year and valuing his ability to control games and maintain tempo. The signing reflects Arsenal's ambition ahead of a vital season, also coinciding with other potential acquisitions such as Viktor Gyokeres and interest in Chelsea's Noni Madueke. Zubimendi's role is expected primarily as a defensive midfielder (number six), where his ball-winning skills and consistency will be vital, complementing Arsenal's existing midfield talents including Mikel Merino. His move from San Sebastián to London marks the end of a 15-year tenure at Real Sociedad and is viewed as a key piece in Arteta's midfield masterplan.
