Martín Zubimendi Real Madrid Transfer News

Madrid, Spain – Real Madrid is making a final push to sign midfielder Martín Zubimendi, according to Diario AS. The club sees Zubimendi as the perfect replacement for its midfield ahead of next season and the Club World Cup.

Despite Arsenal‘s interest and a more lucrative salary offer, Zubimendi values staying in Spain and the opportunity to play under coach Xabi Alonso, with whom he previously worked at Real Sociedad‘s B team.

The midfielder’s representatives expect a concrete offer from Real Madrid soon, which will influence his decision regarding his future. However, Zubimendi’s release clause stands at 60 million euros, making the transfer complicated.

To navigate this obstacle, Madrid is exploring creative options, including a loan with a purchase option. This potential transfer could become a pivotal move in LaLiga this summer, with results perhaps not being finalized until after the Club World Cup.
