Manchester United joins the hunt to sign Euro 2024 champion also on Barcelona’s radar.

Manchester United entered the competition to acquire Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad.

Real Sociedad’s Martin Zubimendi, a Spanish midfielder, is expected to be targeted by Manchester United. The Spaniard recently won the Euro Championship in Germany as part of an amazing journey with his country. According to Football Espana, Barcelona and Arsenal have been monitoring the Real Sociedad midfield player.

The 25-year-old midfielder was crucial to Spain’s victory over England in the Euroa final. In the second half, Spanish manager Luis de la Fuente was compelled to substitute Zubimendi for midfield star Rodri, who had won the player of the tournament award. He ruined England’s attacking moves in the middle of the pitch and carried the midfield responsibilities until the final whistle.

His successful time with his childhood club helped him get into the European team. Since agreeing to a professional contract with the team in 2020, he has established himself as a key member of the Spanish team. The midfield player has made 188 appearances for the team he grew up at.

His contract with the club expires in 2027, and with the Spanish national team’s victory in the Euro championship, his value increased. It is quite tough for a player to turn down approaches from teams like Barcelona, Arsenal, and Manchester United. Therefore, if Zubimendi decides to stay with Real Sociedad for the upcoming season, it will come as a great surprise.

Erik ten Hag has begun preparing for the task of leading the Red Devils into the top four of the forthcoming season in order to demonstrate his abilities at Old Trafford.

Ten Hag has to add players to the team before the season starts, and Casemiro, the star Brazilian, is the only natural defensive-midfielder on the team. When needed, Scott McTominay, a star for United, can also perform.

Due to injury, Casemiro missed a significant portion of the season. Ten Hag also had difficulty in the midfield during that time, suggesting that the Brazilian may not have many years left in him to dominate the game. As a result, the manager is thinking about substituting the seasoned Brazilian midfielder with Zubimendi.

The Red Devils supporters are ecstatic about the new players the team has added, and after seeing Zubimendi play so well in the Euro championships, they will also be curious about his signing.
