Martin Zubimendi shares his reasons for rejecting Liverpool, now set to join Arsenal for $62 million
He had a deal lined up with Liverpool, but he felt it was best to remain in the Basque Country. Fast forward a few months, and now Arsenal is ready to pay his release clause of about $62 million.
Zubimendi has been on Arsenal’s radar for a while, and it seems like they’re close to finalizing the deal. He’s got a lot of potential, and Mikel Arteta is eager to bring him on board.
When he turned down Liverpool, Zubimendi explained that he had to think about his own growth and what was best for him. He mentioned feeling overwhelmed by all the chatter around his future.
He wanted to make a decision that was right for him, not just jump at the first big offer. Zubimendi said he isolated himself during that time to avoid outside influences.
He believes that if you’re meant to achieve something, it will come to you in time. Now, it seems he’s ready for a new challenge at Arsenal, and fans are excited to see what he’ll bring to the team.
