Imanol Alguacil gives firm answer on Real Sociedad star amid interest from Arsenal and Barcelona

The summer transfer window would not be on the horizon if there was no speculation about the future of Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi. The 25-year-old has been regularly linked with a move away over the past two years, and 2024 is no different, with interest rumored from Arsenal, Bayern Munich and Barcelona.

Zubimendi has shown no signs of pushing to leave La Real, and his manager Imanol Algaucil has now commented on the speculation. He told the media on Saturday (via Brand) who look forward to having him on their team for next season.

“There have been rumors not only from Barcelona, ​​but from many other big teams, because he is a great player and he is doing phenomenally, even this year with the Champions League showcase.

“It's been several weeks in which there's been a lot of talk about Zubimendi, and the fact is that it's good for the club and for the boy. However, I have no doubt that he wants to be here and for sure next year he will be here with us .

Real society are certainly relaxed about the situation of Zubimendi, and with good reason. It would be a real surprise if he left, even if his release clause was triggered by any club interested in his signature.
