La Liga
Real Sociedad is sticking to its transfer market plan with two names at the top of the priority list: Igor Julio and Equi Fernández. Both players have agreed to join the txuri-urdin team, but negotiations with their respective clubs are at a standstill, causing some impatience among the players and fans. While the team continues its preseason under the guidance of Sergio Francisco, the board is working to untangle two deals considered crucial for strengthening the squad.
Argentinian midfielder Equi Fernández, currently linked to an Arab club, has an agreement with Real Sociedad, but the obstacle lies in his team's financial demands. Meanwhile, Igor Julio, the Brazilian defender owned by Brighton, is also waiting for updates, but the disagreement is over the terms of his departure: while Real prefers a loan, the English club prioritizes a permanent sale.
Real Sociedad working on signing Igor Julio and Equi Fernández
Despite both players' desire to wear the Real Sociedad jersey, the club has not finalized any signings yet, joining Girona as the only LaLiga teams without confirmed transfers for the upcoming season. This halt is starting to worry fans, especially after Imanol Alguacil's departure and the beginning of a new era under Sergio Francisco.
The new coach, however, remains calm and trusts in the potential of the youth academy as a temporary backup while the transfer market situation is resolved. The lack of goals that plagued the team last season is another unresolved priority for the sporting department, but currently, the immediate focus is on finalizing the deals for Equi Fernández and Igor Julio to strengthen the midfield and defense.
