Leaving Arsenal in the winter transfer window? Suweimendy: The truth is far from that.

Spanish defensive midfielder Martin Zuweimendi has made it clear that reports that he may leave Arsenal in January are untrue.

The 27-year-old Zubémendy came through the Real Sociedad youth academy and transferred to Arsenal in July 2025 for €70 million. To date, he has made 69 appearances for Arsenal, contributing 6 goals and 4 assists, and helped the team win the Premier League title and Community Shield last season.

However, rumors about Zubémendy's potential departure have continued to circulate recently. According to previous reports from British and Spanish media, Zubémendy is preparing to leave Arsenal in the January transfer window. His future destination has attracted the attention of several European giants, including Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atlético Madrid, Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, Chelsea, and Liverpool.

As for Arsenal, there are reports that they consider a loan move as one of the potential options.

In response to the rampant rumors circulating outside the stadium, Zubémendy gave an interview to Marca. He stated, "I haven't wasted too much energy on off-field matters. I'm already too busy fighting for a starting position, getting playing time, and striving to win the Premier League title, which we are currently in a very favorable position for." He added, "I haven't spent any time on that, nor have I contacted anyone."

"To be honest, sometimes even I am surprised by what the media reports. With the winter transfer window approaching, rumors are inevitable. I understand that, but everyone should be more careful when releasing information. Ultimately, every player belongs to a club, and you have to give them the respect they deserve. I have also seen reports that I am about to transfer, but that is far from the truth."

When asked if he was happy with his life in London, Zubémendy gave an affirmative answer: "Yes, I'm very happy. Will I play for Arsenal until the end of this season? I hope so. I'm very happy at Arsenal. My contract with Arsenal will last until 2030."
