Arsenal new player Zubimendi is about to make his Premier League debut. The player was interviewed before the game and talked about his feelings.

"The biggest change is mentality. Here, losing points is not allowed. Mikel (Arteta) pays great attention to details. He is obsessed with taking advantage of every opportunity and will definitely have many requirements for me. This summer is very different for me. It is not easy to adapt to the new environment, but I am already here now and can't wait to start."

Last summer, Zubimendi rejected the opportunity to join Liverpool and chose to stay in Real Sociedad, where he has played for since childhood. And when Arsenal sent him an invitation, he agreed without hesitation.

In response, Zubimendi said: "I had some doubts last year. I felt that I could still make a lot of contributions to Real Sociedad and many goals to be achieved. But this summer, I felt that the time was ripe. When the signing was close to completion, we had a conversation, but he didn't need to convince me because I knew my choice by observing the performance of the team."

Speaking of his Spanish compatriot Rodri who was also playing in the Premier League, Zubimendi said: "I admire him very much. Although I think we are completely different players, I hope to be successful like Rodri did in the Premier League."
