According to UK media outlet The Mirror, Real Sociedad manager Imanol Alguacil explained why Zubimendi refused to join Liverpool. He hinted that Real Sociedad is a bigger club than Liverpool in Zubimendi’s eyes.
This week, Real Sociedad midfielder Zubimendi rejected Liverpool’s efforts to activate his £60 million release clause.
Recently, the Real Sociedad coach talked about the reason in an interview, saying: “There is no doubt that Liverpool is a huge club. The fact is, he still said no to them. Although Liverpool did everything they could and are proud of it. This shows that the club’s work is all done well. There is still some time before the summer window closes, and I can’t say too much absolutely. Today it’s Liverpool, tomorrow it might be another team that comes after him. But whatever, in my opinion, Real Sociedad is the biggest club, and I think Zubimendi sees that too, and that’s why he chose to stay.”
