It appears that Martin Zubimendi is close to becoming the first major signing of the Arne Slot era and that has led to social media going wild about what type of player Liverpool may be about to sign.
It’s perhaps always best to hear what teammates say and Alvaro Morata was full of praise for the midfielder when he spoke when Spain clinched the Euros after beating England in the final.
The former Chelsea striker said (translated): “He had to go out and teach the English how to play. It wasn’t easy and you gave a show, when we needed you the most – you were there.”
It shows how highly rated the 25-year-old is by those who have played alongside him and let’s see whether the Real Sociedad man will soon be calling Anfield his home.
