Arsenal success in bringing in Zubimendi is a form of management's seriousness in increasing the team's strength ahead of the start of the competition, even though he is not a striker (as fans want), his arrival can have a big influence in the midfield because he is a stable, intelligent and efficient defensive midfielder. His presence will also provide balance in midfield while lightening the role of Declan Rice and Odegaard.
Arteta is really busy in the transfer market this time, their activities in the transfer market certainly want to be a team that is ready to win the EPL championship, their target in the front line is also not just any player, if one of the players targeted to fill their front line next season is successfully brought in, Arsenal will be a big threat to other teams in the hunt for the championship title.
Zubimendi is very important transfer without a doubt. But he is a defensive midfielder, and they were looking for a striker, Gyokeres. I wonder if getting Zubimendi means they can't afford Gyokeres? Or does it mean they are going to get both?
Because if you offered me two choices, like either get Zubimendi or get Gyokeres, for Arsenal then I would have picked Gyokeres. But, by the looks of it they are looking to get both of them.
Partey played a huge role in Arsenal this season, so with Zubimendi they are looking to move away from Partey apparently, not entirely sure if they are going to sell Partey or not but he definitely deserves to end up with a team that will play. That should be a good money maker for them too, not much, but could make a bit.
