However, with Arsenal now closing in on Bruno Guimaraes, there could be some doubt about Zubimendi’s future, and Chelsea boss Alonso is an admirer, according to Simon Phillips. Could Chelsea really sign Martin Zubimendi? Chelsea could probably do with strengthening in midfield after letting Andrey Santos go, while there are some doubts over Enzo Fernandez. Chelsea could bid again for Alex Scott, but perhaps Zubimendi could be a more realistic option if Arsenal decide he’s no longer a key part of their plans.
