Manchester City are reportedly prepared to table a £50m bid for Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi. The 25-year-old, a key figure in Spain's Euro 2024-winning squad, has impressed Pep Guardiola with his recent performances.
Their move follows the player's decision to reject Liverpool in the summer transfer window. Despite the Reds board's efforts to lure him to Anfield, the midfielder chose to remain with his boyhood club, earning admiration for his loyalty to the Basque side.
Guardiola is believed to see Zubimendi as a key addition to his squad, particularly as he seeks a long-term successor for Rodri.
La Liga side Real Sociedad, however, remain reluctant to part ways with their star player. While the Sky Blues' lucrative offer is expected to test their resolve, the Spanish club are determined to fight for the midfielder's future, making this a potential saga to watch in January.
