Real Sociedad coach Imanol Alguacil has dismissed speculation surrounding the future of midfielder Martin Zubimendi, insisting that he will remain at the club this summer. The talented player has been linked with moves to Arsenal and Barcelona, but Alguacil is confident that Zubimendi’s commitment lies with Real Sociedad.
“There have been rumors not only from Barcelona, but from many other big teams, because he is a great player and he is performing exceptionally well, especially in this year’s Champions League,” Alguacil stated. He acknowledged that there has been a lot of talk about Zubimendi in recent weeks, which reflects positively on both the club and the player.
However, Alguacil expressed no doubts about Zubimendi’s desire to stay at Real Sociedad. He believes that the midfielder wants to continue his development with the team and is confident that Zubimendi will be part of their squad next season.
The coach’s comments come as a relief to Real Sociedad fans, who have been eagerly following the transfer rumors surrounding Zubimendi. With his impressive performances in the Champions League, it is no surprise that top clubs have shown interest in acquiring his services.
Nevertheless, Alguacil’s reassurance should put an end to any speculation for now. Real Sociedad can look forward to having Zubimendi’s talents at their disposal for the foreseeable future.
