Masoud Noorafkan breaks a bone — 116 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 116 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market27 Jul 2043

Luke Scott asks to leave Real Sociedad B

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad27 Jul 2043

Ola Visted falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad27 Jul 2043

Louka Gautier in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Real Sociedad B this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad27 Jul 2043

Darko Djuricic out for 38 days

The medical room confirms 38 days on the sidelines for Darko Djuricic, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

The Aimar Rey conversation is coming

Everyone has stopped pretending: Leganés will make the call about Aimar Rey this week. Real Sociedad B have a number in mind, and the number is not shy.

Luciano Strey asks to leave Real Sociedad B

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Only the photograph left for Aimar Rey

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Aimar Rey will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Real Sociedad B the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Tempers go at Real Sociedad B

Adrian Sović was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad29 Jun 2043

Real Sociedad B lose Darko Djuricic

66 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Market29 Jun 2043

Espanyol expected to open talks for Maxim Ogarev

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. Real Sociedad B will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.

Samuele Lenzoni breaks a bone — 153 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 153 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Carlos Alonso was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Real Sociedad turn down Getafe for Alessandro Mazzocchi

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Aimar Rey will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Real Sociedad the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Boardroom22 Jun 2043

Daniel Correia has agreed to leave Real Sociedad for nothing

He will play here until the summer and then walk out of the door for free, having already signed elsewhere. Supporters will manage the first part of that sentence; it is the second they will struggle with.

Words at Real Sociedad training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Rosindo Zanni is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Richard Fournier puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Real Sociedad B, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market15 Jun 2043

Kalvin André wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Real Sociedad B hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Only the photograph left for Daniel Navarro

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Daniel Navarro will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Real Sociedad B the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Dejan Ilsanker stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Dejan Ilsanker and Real Sociedad B agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

The unthinkable, invoiced: Hugo Camberos sold

Paris Saint-Germain arrived with $3.0M and left with the best player in the building. The board will call it business; the queue at the ticket office will use other words.

The terraces8 Jun 2043

Real Sociedad sell a favourite for $3.0M

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Hugo Camberos was one of the reasons people came, and $3.0M does not replace that by itself.

Market8 Jun 2043

Aimar Rey hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Real Sociedad can pretend not to have heard.

Market8 Jun 2043

Carlos Alonso wants more than Real Sociedad are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

Only the photograph left for Michael Cunningham

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Michael Cunningham will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Real Sociedad the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Real Sociedad beat the market to Santiago Suárez from Villarreal

Villarreal will keep picking him until June and will get nothing for him after it. Santiago Suárez has pre-agreed a move to Real Sociedad, and the only people who lose in that arrangement are the ones who let the contract run down.

Luis Moya in a row with a teammate

A one-man rearguard from Mateusz Zalewski

There were 14 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Davit Mchedlidze damages knee ligaments — 76 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 76 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Francisco Cuzzani sends Real Sociedad B past Celta

It finished 2‑0, and it was Francisco Cuzzani’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Real Sociedad B.

Sadyg Bagiev in a row with a teammate

Player ratings23 Mar 2043

Nothing got past Ola Visted

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 17 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

A defender's afternoon for Gabriele Samir Jenzeri

Defensive actions: 15. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

Player ratings23 Mar 2043

Pietro Battaglini shuts the door

Defensive actions: 15, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.
