The 25-year-old has dazzled at the base of Sociedad's midfield and earned strong links to Barcelona last season, although his €60m release clause quickly ensured the Catalan outfit would not be able to pursue a transfer.
This year, both Arsenal and Bayern have been named as potential suitors of Zubimendi, but the Sociedad star has poured cold water on the speculation by insisting he is in no rush to leave his current club.
"They are just rumours," he told Kooora. "I am happy at Real Sociedad, it is like my home.
"I cannot say that I will play my entire career at Real Sociedad, perhaps the club does not want me to continue in the future, but I do not worry about those rumours."
Zubimendi has plenty of admirers
Coincidentally, Zubimendi is currently playing alongside Arsenal loanee Kieran Tierney, who gave a ringing endorsement of the midfielder to The Guardian earlier this year.
"You have world-class players like Zubimendi, [Mikel] Merino, Brais [Mendez]," Tierney said. "It's not that people don't think they're good; it's just that if you're only watching the Premier League every week, it's hard to know.
"They're world class, and for so many to come from the academy is incredible."
Zubimendi's current contract still has three more years to run, ensuring Sociedad feel little pressure to entertain offers for him.
