Manchester City midfielder Rodri has praised Arsenal's new signing Martin Zubimendi, suggesting the Spaniard possesses the qualities to rank among the world's elite.

Martin Zubimendi joined Arsenal from Real Sociedad this summer in a £55 million deal and is widely expected to play a key role in the club's pursuit of trophies in the coming seasons.

"His discipline and mindset give him every chance to become one of the very best, if he isn't already at that level."
