Arsenal are reportedly standing firm on Martin Zubimendi despite fresh interest from Real Madrid, according to EPL Index (Opta Stats).
The Spanish midfielder only joined the Gunners last summer, but the report suggests Madrid have revisited their long-standing admiration for him as they weigh up midfield reinforcements. Arsenal, however, are said to have no appetite for sanctioning a sale and view Zubimendi as an important part of their squad going forward.
The report stops short of detailing any concrete offer from Madrid, framing this as renewed interest rather than an active negotiation. Given Zubimendi's recent arrival in north London, any departure so soon would be a surprising turn — and, per the source, Arsenal are keen to shut down that possibility before it gains momentum. Fans will want to watch how this develops as the transfer window progresses, though for now the message from the Emirates is clear: he's not for sale.
