Martin Zubimendi
27-Year-Old
Arsenal
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Zubimendi is making the move to London after an impressive tenure with Real Sociedad where he tallied two goals and one assist in 36 appearances last season. He figures to be an immediate starter at Arsenal to take the place of Thomas Partey. Similar to his role at Sociedad, he'll be deployed as a defensive midfield, which will allow Declan Rice and company to move further up the pitch. Zubimendi's defensive nature is great in real life, but with a lack of upside in his role, most of his fantasy stats will be acquired from defensive moves.
11 minutes from bench
Zubimendi appeared for 11 minutes off the bench in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Southampton.
ANALYSIS
Zubimendi returned to play Saturday after he was forced to drop out of the Spanish national team due to injury, only appearing for 11 minutes off the bench in the loss. The good news is he is fit again as they head into UCL play against Sporting on Tuesday, likely to start alongside Declan Rice (undisclosed ) and Martin Odegaard in the midfield.
