Journalist names Arsenal star as the only viable midfield target for Real Madrid for January
It has been reported recently that Real Madrid have already started looking into the transfer market to solve their problems in midfield.After missing out on Rodri in the summer, the club are keen on ...
Journalist Joaquin Maroto has indicated that Real Madrid may only have one viable transfer option for their midfield in January, and it is Arsenal's Martin Zubimendi. Last summer, the Spanish club had shown interest in Zubimendi, who had been with Real Sociedad before joining Arsenal. However, his time at the Premier League club has not been successful, as he has struggled for playing time. This has led to speculation about his future, with Real Madrid emerging as a potential destination.
Maroto rules out a move for Adam Wharton, another target for Real Madrid, stating that Crystal Palace's star player is not leaving the club any time soon. Mourinho is expected to request the signing of a new midfielder during the January transfer window. Zubimendi's current contract at Arsenal ends in June 2030, so his decision to leave the club may depend on whether Real Madrid makes a move for him.
His appearances in less than 200 minutes of competitive action this season further suggest that Real Madrid might be his best option for a new challenge.
