Liverpool’s hopes of landing their apparent top No.6 target in Martin Zubimendi have been boosted.

David Ornstein of The Athletic has reported on X (formerly Twitter) that the Spaniard is now expected to accept a move to the Anfield-based outfit.

The Merseysiders are understood to be keen on adding a defender and a wide forward to their ranks in the current window.

It’s an important update amid the Reds’ pursuit of the Real Sociedad man – particularly given that reports have suggested Zubimendi’s club won’t stand in his way provided that a move to Merseyside is his wish.

The move for the Spanish international – perhaps surprising given the surplus of options already available in the middle of the park – represents a significant shift in direction from Arne Slot’s men.

A new No.6 will need to aid our more possession-focused football as opposed to purely disrupting attacks.
