Change in morning session planning at Zubieta for Real Sociedad

There has been a change in the planning of the morning session at Zubieta for Real Sociedad. It was supposed to be a closed-door training session at the txuri-urdin training facilities, but David Moyes has changed the initial plan and has taken the entire team to Anoeta to train at the stadium, also behind closed doors. Before the session, Imanol Agirretxe spoke to comment on the rumors of signing a forward for Real Sociedad. "There have been, are, and will continue to be rumors, but until the signings arrive, the ones who are here are the most important. In the end, it's normal for these things to be talked about, we have to ignore that and let those who have to work on it, do it well. The president doesn't stop traveling and is working on it," said the forward from Usurbil. Various media outlets place Jonathas (Elche), Borini (Liverpool), and Rondón (Zenit) in the orbit of Real Sociedad, but although the three are on the realista's agenda to strengthen the attack, their prices currently make it very difficult for any of them to join the txuri-urdin club.

Imanol Agirretxe, at least, has already recovered from the discomfort that had prevented him from training with the group at the beginning of the week. "I'm much better, I finished the Real Unión match with some discomfort that has already passed in two days and I hope to do all the training with the group now and not have any setbacks." For the Usurbil forward, the summer is a crucial time of the year. "Preseason is always tough, there isn't a day when you wake up without something hurting, but it's important to be there with the group and have a complete preseason to build a foundation. It's time to suffer."

From there, Real Sociedad must improve its performance in the four friendlies it has played, as they have only scored one goal. "We have only scored one goal, but it's not the initial objective. We have made mistakes early on against more experienced opponents, I don't think that's the objective, there are many others, but if we keep getting results and scoring more, it will be better. In a few weeks, with more workload, we will have more spark and surely score more." Agirretxe expects Real Sociedad to improve this year's poor performance compared to last season. "Personally and collectively, we all need to regain our feeling, it wasn't an easy year for anyone and we need to start recovering our sensations. As a group, we came from having great years and we want to regain confidence in our game, our spark, and everything we have been able to offer to the people." Because Agirretxe knows very well that he cannot rely on what he has done in previous seasons. "What I've done is very nice, but it's worth nothing. I don't know if there will be signings or not, but I have to be prepared to give my all, I have to be selfish to improve and grow, believe in my performance, and give everything I can."
