In a surprising step, Florentino Perez, president of Real Madrid, moved personally to resolve the contract with Spanish midfielder Martin Zobimi, the star of Real Sociedad, during the next summer transfer period.
According to a report published by Radio Cadena Kobe, Perez himself negotiates with the Sociedad administration, which is rare only in major deals, which reflects his strong royal club’s desire to include the player.
Real Madrid is looking to strengthen its midfield, in preparation for the 2025 Club World Cup competitions, in addition to compensation for the departure of German Tony Kroos, who announced his retirement last summer.
Zobimindi was soon soon to move to Barcelona, but Sociedad’s financial demands, which amount to 60 million euros, obstructed the deal.
With Arsenal’s interest in annexing the player, Real Madrid seeks to resolve the deal quickly.
Zobimindy is associated with a contract with Real Sociedad until the summer of 2027, with a penalty clause of 60 million euros, but Perez’s intervention may accelerate his move to “Santiago Bernabeu”, to enhance the team’s strength in the coming seasons.
