The announcement by Imanol Alguacil of not continuing at the helm of Real Sociedad has triggered a chain reaction within the txuri-urdin locker room. Following the departure of the coach who defined an era at the club, three of its most representative pieces —Takefusa Kubo, Martín Zubimendi, and Jon Aramburu— have formally requested to leave the club this summer. The emotional blow from the exit of the Guipuzcoan strategist has not only left a mark on the fans but also on players who viewed Imanol as a key pillar of their development.

For over six years, Alguacil built a solid project based on identity, youth academy, and ambition. Real not only secured a place in Europe, but also became one of the most admired squads for its style and commitment. His departure signifies a radical shift, and several team leaders do not feel motivated to embark on a new stage with an uncertain future ahead.

Real Sociedad would lose three key players in the summer

Take Kubo, one of the most disruptive players in the squad, already has suitors in the Premier League, with Liverpool and Newcastle showing interest. In Zubimendi's case, his performance has drawn attention from giants like Arsenal and Real Madrid. Meanwhile, Aramburu, this season's revelation, has attracted the interest of clubs such as Inter, Aston Villa, and Newcastle.

Real Sociedad, aware of the value of these assets, will not make their exit easy. They will only consider transfers if the economic conditions set by the club are met. Nevertheless, with the market approaching and Imanol's farewell on the horizon, a revolution in San Sebastián seems inevitable.
