Mikel Merinoif nothing goes wrong and everything goes as expected, he will be an Arsenal player now until the 2027/28 season, with a more optional season and, therefore, he will no longer be a Real player. The Navarrese, who traveled yesterday to London in a private flight with his wife and his whole family, is expected to successfully pass the medical examination today and sign his new contractual relationship, although he cannot intervene, of course, to coincide with his new squad’s clash against Brighton. It is expected, therefore, that Real will say goodbye to him and dedicate a video to him with his ‘highlights’ such as txuri urdin and Mikel will give some emotional words to royalist fans on social networks.
The pendant closed yesterday
Real and Arsenal closed the final details of the agreement yesterday. The txuri urdin entity will receive from the sale of Mikel Merino 32.5 million euros and five of the variables, part of them are very easy to identify. Osasuna takes a million through the unity mechanism.
Yesterday, Friday, August 23, 2024, was the last day of Merino in Zubieta after six years and 242 games with the elastic txuri urdin. The Navarrese midfielder went to the royalist facility to collect his belongings and, above all, to say goodbye to his teammates throughout this time: players, with whom he has a good reputation, coach Imanol Alguacil, the technical staff, the employees.
Seven days to sign
Seven days remain for Real and all teams to support their squads from when the market closes at 11:59 pm next Friday, August 29.
At this time, the Txuri Urdin entity wants to sign a veteran center back and a young forward, in addition to removing one of the strikers on its roster: Carlos Fernandez either Sadiq Umar.
About the defender, the very veteran Matt Hummelsformerly of Borussia Dortmund and without a team at the moment, is the best place, although Real has competition from clubs in other leagues.
Regarding the signing of the striker, Real, except for the last minute, decided Orri Oskarssonthe Icelandic kid from Copenhagen that the coaches love and Olabe. Too expensive. The operation is around 20 million for a player who is not yet 20 years old – he does it on Friday – and has a market value of five million, according to ‘Transfermarkt’.
