Why Arsenal Want Martin Zubimendi So Badly

Mikel Arteta’s bid to finally bring major silverware back to Arsenal will begin in pre-season as the Gunners look to finally end their trophy drought.

Arteta’s side endured another campaign of near misses last term, finishing second in the Premier League for a third successive season as well as crashing out in the Champions League to eventual winners Paris Saint-Germain.

Having been plagued by injury woes over the past year, the club are set to bring in numerous high-profile signings, with a striker and defensive midfielder at the top of their wish list.

Pre-season will allow Arteta to see how his new boys – which could include the likes of Benjamin Sesko and Martin Zubimendi – shape up ahead of what could be a defining campaign for the Spaniard’s legacy.

Here’s everything you need to know about Arsenal’s pre-season fixtures.

When does Arsenal’s pre-season begin?

Arsenal’s pre-season will begin with a training camp in Spain before they head to Singapore on July 19 for their tour of Asia.
