Why Bayern Munich cooled interest in Arsenal star

Bayern Munich are among the clubs monitoring Martin Zubimendi as the midfielder continues to demonstrate his quality and fight for a regular place in the Arsenal team.

The Spaniard has established himself as a reliable player and has again impressed during the current international break. His performances for Spain have strengthened the argument that he deserves more playing time than he has received at Arsenal this season.

Despite being an ever-present member of the Gunners’ team last season and winning the World Cup with Spain in the summer, Zubimendi has found himself spending considerable time on the bench at the Emirates since the start of this campaign.

Bayern Munich interested in Zubimendi

Arsenal regard the midfielder as an ideal player for their team and have no desire to lose him, despite his reduced involvement this season. However, his lack of regular game time has fuelled speculation that he could consider leaving in January.

Several major clubs are reportedly monitoring his situation. Chelsea, Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid all regard him as an important target, while Bayern Munich are also among the teams that could consider signing him in one of the upcoming transfer windows.

The German champions admire Zubimendi’s qualities and would be interested in adding a player of his profile to their midfield. His situation at Arsenal could therefore attract further attention if his opportunities in the first team remain limited.
