Did they really beat Real to it? Zubimendi set for Arsenal medical soon

Real Sociedad midfielder Martín Zubimendi has long been on Arsenal’s transfer radar, but it seems the Gunners have only just decided to make a serious push for his signature.

Details: According to ESPN, Zubimendi is expected to undergo a medical at Arsenal soon ahead of finalizing his move to the London club. Arsenal have been working on a deal for the 26-year-old midfielder for several months and are now ironing out the last details of the transfer. It is reported that Zubimendi’s contract includes a €60 million release clause.

Reminder: Liverpool were also in the race for the midfielder, and more recently, Real Madrid expressed interest. However, the player himself has made it clear he’s determined to join Arsenal.
