Despite being a mainstay in Arsenal's title chasing side Martin Zubimendi is reportedly considering a return to Spain this summer.

Rumours have emerged that the midfielder has struggled to adapt to life in London less than a year after his €70m move from Real Sociedad.

Arsenal are said to be monitoring Elliot Anderson as a potential replacement should Zubimendi push for a departure.

Any move would come as a surprise given the successful partnership the Spaniard has formed with Declan Rice in the heart of the midfield.
