The 25-year-old, previously linked with Liverpool as manager Arne Slot sought a new defensive midfielder, rejected a move to the Merseyside club last summer to remain at his boyhood team. However, according to The Athletic’s David Ornstein, Zubimendi’s stance has shifted, and he could be ready to leave Sociedad at the end of the season.
Zubimendi’s Change of Heart
Ornstein Revealed:
“This is a player who came close to joining Liverpool last summer. Not for the first time, he decided to stay with Real Sociedad. Arsenal, Real Madrid, and others have also shown interest. But increasingly, in the conversations I’ve had, there’s an expectation now that this summer he is more mentally prepared to move.”
Zubimendi’s loyalty to Real Sociedad has been a defining feature of his career, but with the club struggling in La Liga—currently sitting ninth—the midfielder may be ready for a new challenge.
Liverpool will face stiff competition from Arsenal, Real Madrid, and Manchester City for Zubimendi’s signature. His qualities as a defensive midfielder make him a highly sought-after talent, and securing him would signal ambition from any club.
Despite his reported readiness to leave, Zubimendi has no plans to depart Sociedad in the January window. Interested clubs, including Liverpool and Arsenal, will have to wait until the summer to make their moves.
Zubimendi could thrive under Arne Slot at Liverpool, potentially becoming one of the best players in his position. His addition would not only strengthen Liverpool’s midfield but also underline the club’s intent to compete at the highest level.
The summer transfer window promises to be a pivotal moment in Zubimendi’s career, with Liverpool hoping to secure a player who could elevate their title aspirations further...CLICK TO READ THE FULL NEWS HERE▶▶
