Zubimendi ready for 'new things' after year-long wait to join Arsenal

Arsenal fans will get to see their new midfielder Martin Zubimendi in action for the first time on Wednesday - 12 months after the Gunners first set in motion a deal to bring him to the club.

The 26-year-old, one of the most highly-rated number sixes in Europe, played his first minutes for Arsenal in a behind closed door friendly against Watford last Saturday.

But his first appearance in front of supporters since making a £60m move from Real Sociedad earlier this month is expected to come against AC Milan in Singapore.

Zubimendi is a name that many football fans will be familiar with, having played a key role in Spain beating England in the Euro 2024 final.
