What happened. Chelsea have been linked with a move for Martin Zubimendi, but Mikel Arteta has already made it clear the midfielder is important and Arsenal do not want to sell him.

• Zubimendi lost his place to Myles Lewis-Skelly last season.
• Arsenal signed Bruno Guimaraes for £75m this summer.
• Chelsea now appear to want Lamine Camara from Monaco instead.

Chelsea may pivot to other targets, while Zubimendi stays at Arsenal as a key squad member.
