Martin Zubimendi rejected a move to Liverpool during the summer transfer window and have also reportedly turned down Barcelona and Bayern Munich in the past

Arsenal have been tipped to sell one star midfielder to make room for Martin Zubimendi. Standard Sport understands the Gunners are ready to trigger Zubimendi's €60million (£51m) release clause after a months-long pursuit, as they look to refresh their midfield.

Arsenal are pursuing a deal to sign midfielder Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad next summer. The move for the 25-year-old has been worked on for a considerable time and if an agreement is reached will come a year after Liverpool failed in their own bid to sign the Spain international.
