The name of Martín Zubimendi has been in the diary of the FC Barcelona from does a long time. Since Xavi Hernández did with the reins of the Barcelona bench, has been in the research of his traspaso, because it understands that it is the footballer more 'seemed' to Sergio Busquets that there is in LaLiga. It asked it in 2022 and 2023, but it has been a movement inasumible for the club by diverse factors.
The first have been the contractual conditions of the player in the Real Sociedad. Has agreement until the summer of 2027 and a clause of exit that rises to the 60 million euros. Likewise, it has gone in at stake the fact that, up to now, always has showed to be very comfortable in San Sebastián and without needs to go out. It is important for Imanol Bailiff and likes him be in his 'house', by what he same has descartado the option to go out in spite of the interest of different clubs.
The name of Zubimendi will be still in the diary of the Barça
In the Barça are very conscious that it is an operation complicated and that 'depend' to convince to a jugadr that already is accustomed that it speak of him, in key signings, and that does case omiso to the rumours on his future. For him it prevails the tranquility and leadership that has in the Reale Sand and, for the moment, is not on the table the possibility to do his cases. In any case, from the City Condal keep attentive in case it exists the possibility to do with his services.
The skilled journalist in the market of signings, Fabrizio Romano, has explained recently that in the dispatches of the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper is arguing the incorporation of Zubimendi for the summer of 2024. It has not been, in any moment, a viable operation for the market of wintry signings by his high cost of traspaso. Xavi continues being the main 'avalador' of the arrival of the player of 24 years.
A 'task' for the Barça in 2024
The same source indicates that the trainer egarense is loved with the profile of Zubimendi and that, if he had to choose to a midfield player to reinforce his team, would be he. In the Barça already know it very well, but the possibility to pay the 60 million euros of his clause of exit seems very far. This, aunado to that it is necessary to convince to the midfield player, limits the alternatives of the culés. It will be a subject to argue in 2024.
