Zubimendi.

He's an absolute melt isn't he. I feel for Arsenal here!

That 3 times now? Arsenal, us then Arsenal again? Curious to see how he'd do in the prem and maybe see what all the hypes about but he seems like he has no idea what he wants.

Has anything new happened? I saw one source from Marca claiming he wanted to go to Madrid, but turns out he's an awful source and since then most reputable people have double down on it being done with Arsenal

Why not come out and say I have given my word to a team and will honour that agreement.
Just have the feeling that if Madrid calls, he will jump ship.

I think we have legal stuff in place that means he can't jump ship and he's just giving basic PR answers before it's announced but we shall see

Given how long it's been going on for it would be very surprising and poor from us if we didn't have anything in writing to ring fence it. The fact that we haven't really been linked to any other CM's would suggest to me that the deal is done and that Partey is probably staying as well.

Impatient fans wanting updates every hour.
Media who are willing to stir up the fans at every chance.
Clubs doing the business outside the spotlight.
All adds up to ridiculous rumours and panicking fans.

The truth is likely to be the deal is agreed but Sociedad want it to be finalised in July for their finances. Zubimendi was busy with internationals and now taking a deserved holiday.

Real would have wanted him for the CWC, and they are a team who are willing to pay £10m for a player they had for nothing in a month.

The media will have you believe Mbuemo turned us down for United, we have bid for half the professionals in the world and are selling all our best players. It is up to you if you want to get hyped over every story or just let it play out.

This window isn't even for us.
