MARTÍN ZUBIMENDI
Midfielder · Arsenal · Premier League
“Calm deep midfielder who carries through pressure and never seems to lose it.”
GoalPost verdict
GoalPost score (GPS)
GoalPost read
Zubimendi is a prime deep midfielder with a rare control of tempo, and his value rests on peak form at Arsenal and a long, steady baseline at Real Sociedad. The discount comes from league level and the fact he is not a locked-in starter.

Analysis overview
Zubimendi operates as a deepMid who gives Spain a steady base and a clean first pass out of trouble. He is at his best when he drops into the circulation, carries the ball forward through pressure, and then keeps the move alive with exceptional retention. The tempo stays on his terms: secure, composed, and always pointed toward the next line.
