Real Sociedad Alert: Zubimendi, one step closer to leaving 1r2g2b

Arsenal has taken an important step in its attempt to incorporate Martín Zubimendi, reaching a general agreement with the player after clearing the main obstacles in the negotiation. However, although the personal are practically defined, the transfer is not yet completely closed, as there are details to be resolved before the midfielder from Real Sociedad becomes a 'gunner'.

The London club has been in with the midfielder's environment for over two months, intending to finalize his arrival before the start of the summer transfer window. Despite the progress, Arsenal's executives remain cautious, as Zubimendi has been close to changing teams in the past but ended up rejecting proposals, as was the case with Liverpool.

One of the key factors in the operation is the player's release clause, set at 60 million euros. However, the total outlay would be higher due to taxes and additional fees that Arsenal must consider before executing the operation.

Despite the progress in the negotiation, Real Sociedad still hopes Zubimendi decides to stay with the team. His contract states that the player himself must trigger the clause to finalize his departure, giving him room to continue evaluating options.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid has been linked to the midfielder, although their market priority seems to be reinforcing other positions, such as right-back and center-back. With this scenario, Arsenal continues to lead the race for Zubimendi, but they still need to finalize the last details to secure his incorporation.
