Bayern were very sure that they would lead the race for Zubimendi but now that Arsenal are there, they're afraid of the Gunners and afraid that Mikel Arteta could take this player away, which had been a planned move for the summer.
Martin Zubimendi is the No.1 target for Bayern in front of Joao Palhinha, the head of football at the BILD group exclusively informed CaughtOffside. He has a release clause of 60m, which is why he's so interesting. Bayern Munich are pushing for him and it's also interesting that Xabi Alonso is with the same agency. Bayern executives are watching him closely as a potential coach for the Bavarian outfit. Bayern also heard that Mikel Arteta is already talking to the player. They're both Spanish as well, which is a big advantage for Arsenal! Bayern were very sure that they would lead the race for Zubimendi but now that Arsenal are there, they're afraid of the Gunners and afraid that Mikel Arteta could take this player away, which had been a planned move for the summer.
