From the source
Martin Zubimendi appears to be moving towards an early Arsenal departure, with the midfielder now prepared to explore a January transfer after a difficult spell in north London.
According to TeamTalk, the 27-year-old has reached an “exit decision” and several major clubs across Europe have been made aware of his situation. Zubimendi joined Arsenal in a £60million deal in 2025 amid strong competition and significant expectation.
He arrived as a player expected to anchor Mikel Arteta’s midfield for years to come. Instead, his role has diminished sharply, and the latest information suggests the Spain international now sees a move as the best route to revive his career.
