Currently second in Liga behind FC Barcelona and quarter finalist of the Champions League while being in the running in the King's Cup, Real Madrid has an interesting season, but it will be necessary to convert this during the final stretch of the exercise. The Merengues are riveted at the end of the season which promises to be intense, but behind the scenes we obviously work to draw the following season. And while the future of the future Madrid coach has not yet been decided with a possibly leaving Carlo Ancelotti and a regularly cited Xabi Alonso, the arrivals of players are starting to define themselves.
As since the start of the season, the name of the right side of Liverpool Trent Alexander-Arnold returns regularly. If his arrival has taken shape and the signals are green, this file is not yet completed. In recent days, another name also comes from the Casa Blanca side for the defensive sector, it is Dean Huijsen, the prodigy of Bournemouth. The central defender who started in selection with the Roja on this international truce of Mars is coveted by many European cadors and has a release clause of 50 million euros. The other name that comes back is that of Martin Zubimendi and it is starting to take thickness.
€ 60 million for Martin Zubimendi
So, El Partidazo de Cope Announces that Real Madrid accelerates to bring the 26 -year -old Basque player who could finally make the big jump and leave his training club of Real Sociedad. Followed this winter by Manchester City and also announced as a potential recruit this summer on the side of Arsenal where we find Mikel Merino, his former teammate on the side of the Txuri-Urdinak, Martin Zubimendi knows that the situation of his club does not promote his continuity. Currently twelfth in Liga, the Basque club will not qualify for the next edition of the Champions League and this may slow down its evolution.
Faced with this situation, his agent would be attentive to the offers and the president of Real Madrid, Florentino Pérez, would have moved to information for the one who won Euro 2024 last summer with Spain. Contingship 38 matches this season with Real Sociedad (2 goals and 2 offerings), Martin Zubimendi is under contract until June 2027 and has a release clause of 60 million euros. A price far from being edifying for Real Madrid which is ready to put the price and knows that the player could enter the game plan of Carlo Ancelotti like that of Xabi Alonso. Indeed, the technician of Bayer Leverkusen had declared this about Martin Zubimendi: “He's the player that each coach would like to have.” With or without Xabi Alonso, Real Madrid spent the second in recruiting a midfielder capable of filling the void left by Toni Kroos for a few months.
