Liverpool reportedly wants to bring in Spanish League club Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi in this summer’s transfer market.
According to European transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool are interested in recruiting Zubimendi because of his performance.
The Spanish midfielder is one of Sociedad’s key players who in the last two seasons finished in sixth place (2023/2024) and fourth (2022/2023).
“Liverpool are trying to bring in Martin Zubimendi as their new midfielder. He has a release clause of 60 million euros in his contract,” Romano said on his X account on Wednesday.
This summer, Liverpool have yet to bring in a single player to Anfield.
Arne Slot is reportedly looking to shop for several players and his priority is to bring in a new defensive midfielder in the summer of 2024.

Slot is interested in securing Zubimendi’s services after the player performed well and played a key role in helping the Spanish national team win Euro 2024.
According to Romano’s report, Liverpool have contacted Real Sociedad to start negotiating regarding the player’s transfer.
The negotiation process is currently in the early stages, but Liverpool are optimistic about being able to bring in the 25-year-old midfielder.
Zubimendi is reportedly able to be redeemed for his release clause which is at 60 million pounds (around Rp. 1.22 trillion) this summer.
